Photo ID: 102335 Date Shot Photo By Saturday, September 6, 2008 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed MP 47 Spruce, CO 1589 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Colorado Springs (UP)/Pikes Peak (BNSF) BNSF Much of the terrain along the Joint Line between Castle Rock and Palmer Lake is very mountain-like. Lots of pine trees and hills. One possible exception is the open plains region near Spruce. Here, there is a large open valley with a few rolling hills and lots of open land. A BNSF coal train cuts through the middle on Main One as its trek to the "top of the hill" at Palmer Lake is almost complete.
