Railroad photograph

The weather was a bit curious on this cold March morning. 15 minutes before taking this picture, you could clearly see all the way to Eisele to the west. Then, this fog rolled in, seemingly from nowhere! An eastbound coal load with a pair of SD70ACes emerges from the fog at Chem Spur. The train is headed for Xcel Energy's Valmont Power Plant in Boulder.
