This time of year, the valley east of Tolland only barely gets any sunlight, even in the middle of the day. The sun is so far to the south, the south mountains of the valley block the sun. Fortunately, there is just enough sunlight to light up a UP ES44AC and a CP ES44AC, leading an eastbound loaded oil train across South Boulder Creek.
