A beautiful Saturday afternoon found a pleasant surprise with UP 1989 leading the MNYRO (North Yard, CO to Roper, UT) manifest west on the Moffat! Here, the train approaches the east switch of Leyden, the Denver skyline rising in the distance.

I like the fact that if it wasn't for the exhaust distortion, this picture could be a scene of a model railroad layout, albeit a nice one.
