The Moffat can truly be feast or famine, and more often than not it seems like it is famine. However, such was not the case on this particularly Sunday as there were seven trains running in the Colorado high country! I got shots of all but one (the eastbound Zephyr), with this westbound UP oil train being the final one. The train is just west of Little Gore, on the approach to Radium.
