An eastbound blade train, led by UP 1983, passes by a "Distant Signal" just before passes underneath the US-24 overpass. US-24 connects Limon and Colorado Springs. Limon is also the location where the UP interchanges traffic with the KYLE railroad. The KYLE runs on the former Rock Island east out of Limon.

On the western edge of Limon, UP 1983 and blade train break out of the clouds and enter some nice morning light. The train passes by one of many plains industries located along the tracks.

More often than not, Colorado has clear skies on Summer mornings and then clouds build up and there are afternoon thunderstorms. That wasn't the case on this particular June morning. A cloud settled over this S-Curve west of Limon as UP 1983 pulled through the curve with a blade train.
