An eastbound crosses over a culvert underneath some partly cloudy skies. Despite the (relatively) clear skies, it was actually a very chilly day.

Prior to the construction of I-70, CO-36 was the main route east of Denver out on to the plains. A westbound oil train moves up and down with the plains landscape parallel to US-36 a few miles west of Bennett, CO.

I like getting an "up close" long lens shot like this one. The compression of the train and detail of the lead units makes for a dramatic shot. The Limon Sub moves up and down over the gentle hills of the eastern Colorado plains.

As the Limon Sub heads out on to the plains, opportunities for long lens shots like this become far more prevalent! Snow-capped Rocky Mountains are visible in the distance as a coal train, running 2x(0)x1 approaches a slow order west of Bennett, CO.
