Had things worked out differently with Tennessee Pass, this line might seen coal trains on a daily basis heading east out of Colorado. Instead, UP decided to mothball this route and use the KP (and the Moffat) for its trains instead. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

After the MoPac/UP merger, Rio Grande actually gained trackage rights to Kansas City on the MoPac line from NA Junction. After the UP/SP merger, UP sold the line to short line railroads and it is hardly used today. BNSF train, however, use the former ATSF line (now the Pueblo Sub) to make it to La Junta. Here, a coal load leaves CTC behind in favor of TWC for the trip to La Junta. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

At the entrance to the facility, EMDX 70 - one of the first SD70ACes - sits idling by itself along BNSF's main track. Why it was here, alone? I do not know...
