Denver Union Terminal (RTD) Ski Train
Passengers work their way down the platform at Union Station as the Ski Train prepares for its first run west of the 2006 Summer Season. This scene has changed a lot from twenty years ago! The bridge in the foreground is the HOV/Bus ramp that goes to and from Denver/I-25.

Moffat Tunnel (UP) Ski Train
After being delayed by a half hour or so due to a small grass fire, the Ski Train continues west at Plainview. When climbing up toward Big Ten, the crew on the train noticed a small fire near Little Ten at the west end of Rocky. The Ski Train stopped at Clay (because Amtrak was originally going to run around them). However, due to the first, Amtrak got held at Rocky and the Ski Train continued west.
