UP 1943 and UP 9072 lead an Officer's Special west on the Moffat at Leyden. A senior UP official is retired and UP is capping off his career with a run of this train that he and his family (and likely others) rode. The train ran from Denver to Grand Junction. Tomorrow, it will return to Denver.

Fall colors are not yet at their peak, but they are still looking pretty good as UP 1943 leads an Officer's Special west on the main at Tolland.

UP 1943, painted to honor the United States Armed Forces, leads an Officer's Special westbound at Tolland amidst some blossoming fall colors. Due to a cool and west June, the trees are turning colors much later in the season than normal. A high ranking UP official is retiring soon and is enjoying a private run from Denver to Grand Junction and back, courtesy of UP.
