This first tunnel on the former Rio Grande is 366 feet long. As you can see, short enough for both ends of the Zephyr to be outside the tunnel.

Photo ID: 109068 Date Shot Photo By Thursday, May 4, 2023 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed CP DS024 (East Plain) Arvada, CO 158 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Moffat Tunnel (UP) Union Pacific A UP Maintenance worker has a conversation with two people (and their dog) about their campsite. They have a tent setup (out of frame to the left) that is within 10 feet of the mainline. The MOW worker is presumably advising them that they are (dangerously) trespassing and that they need to leave ASAP. UP has called a special agent and, if these folks are still present when the agent shows up, they'll like be ticketed. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
