Greeley (UP) Union Pacific, Rio Grande
A few miles north of "downtown" Plateville, this local based out of La Salle has finished its switching for the day and is headed back north. Both GP40-2s on the train are ex-Rio Grande geeps. Prior to being patched, UP 1359 (on the point) was DRGW 3118. The second unit, UP 1348, was DRGW 3126.

The daily North Platte to North Yard manifest enters a super elevated curve just south of Gilcrest on its way toward Denver. The train is being led by a pair of GE AC's, the first of which was an AC6000CW until it was converted from 6,000 HP to 4,400 HP.
