You cannot beat a scene like this, in the middle of winter in the Colorado Rockies. This oil train is headed east on the highest Class 1 mainline in the country. It is a straight line back past east Tolland and on the main. The Continental Divide stands tall in the background, the valley the train is entering lined with pine trees.
