Moffat Tunnel (UP) Union Pacific
A very heavy MNYRO works it way west through the canyon between Rollins and Tolland. Four SD70M's (UP 4152, UP 4390, UP 4422, UP 4772) provided the power for the train. The first three units are Phase-I SD70M's with wings and the lightning bolt scheme. The fourth unit is a Phase-II SD70M with wings, flags, and flared radiators.

Moffat Tunnel (UP) Union Pacific
A short-time eastbound coal train ("short-time" meaning the crew is close to their 12-hour work limit) was passing through Tabernash when this westbound got to Rollins. Due to the fact that the eastbound needed to make it to Plain in order to change crews, UP 5610 got stuck waiting in the siding at Rollins for 45 minutes. Looks like the number on the cab and flag on the long hood have both recently received a cleaning!
