Moffat Tunnel (UP) Ski Train
A few days prior to the start of the 2008 Summer Ski Train Season, the train (or a part of the train) was chartered for an overnight trip to Winter Park. Four of the 14 cars (plus the three private cars) made up the consist for the trip. A day before this picture, the train went up to Winter Park and spent the night tied down on the Fraser siding. Here, the train passes through Arvada on the way back to Union Station.

Moffat Tunnel (UP) BNSF
The weather was all over the place on this particular afternoon. Clear skies could be found to the east while a thunderstorm rolls in over the front range of the Rockies. This is BNSFs QSTDVJ-04, which was almost 7,000 feet long when it left Grand Junction! At this point, the train was about 6,000 feet long after dropping off several cars in Kremmling.

With the sun well below the mountains, I decided to see how well my flash would work on the reflective tape of the units. The eastbound coal load is headed for Bypass Two at the north end of North Yard.

Moffat Tunnel (UP) Ski Train
With light fading quickly in the western sky, the eastbound Ski Train crosses 72nd Avenue in Arvada. The train is running right on time, coming up to an Advanced Approach (flashing yellow) signal at Kipling Street.
