UP 7264 and train cross over County Road 134 in rural Elbert County, about 75 miles east of Denver. The train is going to meet a rare daylight manifest at Limon. Alas, I was unable to get a shot of the meet as I had to head home. UP recently started running a once-weekly manifest between Sharon Springs, KS and Denver, CO, after nearly a decade of no regular manifests running on the line.

This oil train came off the Moffat this morning, and actually went into emergency at Rocky, temporarily blocking the west switch and delaying the westbound Rocky Mountaineer. About seven hours later, the DPUs have been removed and the train is now making its way across the eastern plains of Colorado between Agate and Limon.
