At the base of Coal Creek Canyon, this eastbound BNSF oil train is emerging from the cut just west of Blue Mountain Drive, the head end now looking toward the grade crossing (and the hotbox detector at MP 22.6). If you look just above the covered hopper, at the tank cars a bit back in the train, you can see the top of the bridge that crosses over CO-72.
