One location on the Limon Sub that offers up some good shots throughout most of the day is Cedar Point. This siding is about 10 miles west of Limon, CO. And, in fact, it really is not even a siding anymore. It is a 4,800-foot-long stub track! UP actually removed the east switch of the siding, and it can only be accessed from the west end now. Here, a coal train descends downgrade as it crosses over said west switch.
