Photo ID: 110928 Date Shot Photo By Monday, August 19, 2024 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed CP DS016 (East Rocky) Arvada, CO 45 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Moffat Tunnel (UP) Amtrak The westbound Zephyr knocks down a clear (green) signal at the east end of Rocky. To the right, in UP's dirt parking lot, there are number of MOW vehicles, including a bus, that dropped off a huge gang of workers at o-dark-thirty the night before. The gang powered up a bunch of MOW rail vehicles that were tied down in the siding at Rocky and, at 3:30am, headed west! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture. Photo ID: 110929 Date Shot Photo By Monday, August 19, 2024 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed Rocky (7,330ft) Arvada, CO 34 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Moffat Tunnel (UP) Amtrak This unit is the reason I went out for a few shots of the Zephyr this morning. There is nothing particularly special about this P42DC when you look at it. So why did I make the effort to get a shot? I am trying to get shots of as many of Amtrak's P42DCs before they are inevitably retired. AMTK 140 was one of 41 units I had not yet shot (out of 207 total units). With this shot, only 40 left to try to get shots of. Alas, some I will never get as a few have been wrecked and/or retired for other reasons.
