Fall colors are kind of all over the place as a westbound Denver-Provo approaches the east portal of the Moffat Tunnel. September 20th is still a little early (on average) for fall colors to reach their peak here at 9,000-feet. The train will be the third train since sunrise to pass through the Moffat Tunnel.
