"Fall brown" has taken over the foliage along the right-of-way at Mesa on UP's Limon Sub. This coal train loaded at the West Elk Mine on the North Fork Branch in western Colorado and is now headed east. The train just met a westbound local and is copying a track warrant right now to continue the journey east on to the Colorado Plains.
