The eastbound MRONY calls an approach signal at west Clay to meet the westbound American Orient Express. In the distance, note the two P42's on the point of the AOE about to enter the siding of Clay to meet the manifest.

What a great day to be riding the American Orient Express through the Colorado Rockies! The AOE is seen here just emerging from Tunnel 1 on its journey west toward San Francisco.

A southbound stack train approaches MP 32 on the Front Range Sub, and is being led by three thirty-year-old EMD's, the second of which was once a Rio Grande SD40T-2. It is now National Railway Equipment (NREX) 5398.

Of course the sun was still high enough to create a nice line through this former Rio Grande SD40T-2. That's okay though, because when it comes to these units, you have to take what you can get!
