AMTK 167 leads AMTK 182 and the morning California Zephyr through the middle of Arvada. Specifically, the train just crossed Carr Street and is running alongside Oberon Road. The elementary school I attended is located just a few blocks north of this location. When I was kid, I would go out at recess, climb the monkey bars, and hope to see the top of a few Rio Grande tunnel motors leading a train over this stretch of track!
