I didn't alter this shot at all using PhotoShop. This is actually what came out of the camera (as the saying goes). It can be difficult to get shots like this as the neon can be a bit underexposed or the moon can be a bit overexposed. Hard to find a "happy medium".

The back of Union Station has been nicely decorated with lights for the Christmas Season. Unfortunately, Amtrak stops too far to the east to be able to really capture both the train and the lights in the same shot.

Union Station is all ready for Christmas! The decorating crew, as always, did a wonderful job with the front of Union Station looking down 17th Street in Denver. I particularly like the Christmas Tree of lights on the flag pole in the front.

A "D-Line" Light Rail train slows to a stop at the 16th street station (on California Street) in downtown Denver. 16th Street is a mall in Denver, and no commercial vehicles are allowed to drive on it.

Something of a maze exists at the Broadway Light Rail station in Denver. At this location, the new I-25 DTC line departs the existing line for the south. The new branch is scheduled to open in November 2006.

Ever wonder where the Ski Train lives during the off-season? You can see it if you ride Light Rail in either direction. The station at Osage and 10th is right next to Burnham, UP's Denver shops. The Ski Train sits hear in storage during the off-season.

A northbound Light Rail train sits in the station at Broadway and I-25. The track in the foreground will be the new southbound track leading to the I-25/DTC portion of Light Rail once it is open. The southbound track for the existing southwest branch is on the left side of the picture.
