A pair of GP40-2s cross CO-93, returning from the Arcosa Lightweight aggregate plant with no cars. As the geeps approached the grade crossing, the conductor spotting the reverse move (the engineer is in the second unit) told the engineer that "traffic appears to be behaving" when approaching the crossing, ensuring that the cars were stopping at the red light and that it was safe to cross.

I've been a fan of the Moffat line for 60 years. Saw traffic on this industrial lead for the first time on VFR camera. Your shots are amazing, the photography is spectacular. Thank you! Found your site by a link posted in chat on VFR by moderator. Great site! Hope many of the hundreds of VFR watchers of the Big Ten camera find your site. It is spectacular!
