New Years Eve and New Years Day slowed all trains down a bit! The QTACDEN always runs with auto racks up front and double stack in the back. Of course a big, large cloud set over the area about 20 seconds before I snapped this shot! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The Longmont Switch, short one unit, has arrived at North Yard in Fort Collins with a string of cars. These cars will be dropped off here for interchange with the Great Western. Typically, the Longmont Switch would have two units, but the second unit (a GP60M) was not cooperating and was left in Longmont.
