Two days ago, I got a few shots of a westbound coal empty led by a pair of Canadian National units. Now, two days later, that train has loaded at the West Elk Mine and the train is returning east. The Canadian National units are now the two tail end DPUs.

Three units load a 99-car loaded coal train east on the Dotsero Cutoff between the sidings of Range and Dell. The train has seven units (3x2x2), so it is not having much trouble making track speed.

Just east of Range, the Rocky Mountaineer is crossing the Colorado River amidst some great fall colors as it continues westbound.

If you've never taken a passenger train on the former Rio Grande, this is why you should if you get the chance! Whether it is the Rocky Mountaineer, such as here, or the California Zephyr, the scenery is breathtaking. The Mountaineer is crossing the Colorado River in Red Canyon under partly cloudy skies on a fantastic October afternoon.

The westbound Rocky Mountaineer is in Red Canyon between Dell and Range, crossing over the Colorado River in fantastic afternoon lighting.
