While there are no trains in this shot, I thought I'd post a shot of the progress on the raising of the dam. The project started in 2022 and is expected to be completed in 2027. The dam will be raised 131 feet, tripling the capacity of the reservoir, used for drinking water in Denver.

Construction continues on the Gross Dam project. The project will ultimately raise the dam by 131 feet, tripling the capacity of the water in the reservoir. As you can see, the dam is being reinforced by thickening the front of the dam. Once the reinforcements has risen to the height of the existing dam, it will continue to build upward.

While there is no train in the shot, I thought I'd include this shot of Gross Reservoir to show the progress being made on the raising of the reservoir. The height of the dam is increasing by 131 feet, which will increase the capacity roughly three times over! The project still has a couple years remaining.
