Ahh, the plains of eastern Colorado! The majority of the coal trains that come down from the Moffat head east on the Limon Sub for points in Missouri, Illinois and beyond. Most trains, such as this one, have their power setup in a 2x1 configuration.

After holding for about an hour at Tabernash while waiting for the MNYRO to perform some work at Fraser (which can still be seen in the siding), the MRONY is finally on the move eastbound once again. Note that practically every pine tree in the shot is purple! All those trees have died as a result of the "Beetle Bark" epidemic in Colorado.

Amazing to think that trains once ran over that mountain range in the distance! On this fabulous June day, UP's MNYRO pops out of the trees and into the clearing in Fraser Valley.
