Joint Line coal |
Description: |
I had finished my chase of UP 4014 the day before, and was now starting home after spending a couple hours on the RTD in the morning. As I approached Castle Rock, I saw this coal train over on the Joint Line, and got off to get a couple of shots. It was holding at a signal, so easy pickings here. |

Underway |
Description: |
After getting the previous shot, I went down to pull a U turn with the RV, to find the train was just starting to move. OK, cool, the chase is on. The head end passes Castle Rock, a prominent formation on the way from Denver to Colorado Springs. |

High plains panorama |
Description: |
There are several places between Larkspur and Palmer Lake where there are some good, wide views of the line. It runs just a little way out in the plains, not really in the mountains, though even in the foothill regions, the elevation gets pretty high. Were looking toward the east as the train approaches Palmer Lake |

Heres why the coal train was holding |
Description: |
Just as I went under the bridge at the south end of town, this northbound showed. I caught him a little farther up, under a large rock outcrop. In the consist is an ex BN GP 50, something of a rarity at this late date. |

Moving on |
Description: |
Needing to keep making progress toward home, I left the two Joint Line trains at Palmer Lake and resumed my trek south. If I had a couple more days, I could have shot a lot of trains here, I saw at least five from the road that I might otherwise have gone after. As I neared Pueblo, I caught up to this southbound grain move. This is the DPU, a grab shot out the window as I rolled down I 25. |

The head end |
Description: |
The 75 MPH speed limit on I 25 makes catching trains here a bit easier than most places, and I was soon looking at the lead units. Now, where to get ahead of him for a good shot?? |

Heres where |
Description: |
I jumped off the interstate at the next exit I thought would work, went through a single lane underpass, and out to the tracks near a raceway. I found myself at a location called Bragdon on the railroad, just in time to catch the train rolling through a sag, and splitting the signals there. |

Classic station sign |
Description: |
Sometimes there are parts of an updated operation that just dont get changed in the new regime, either through benign neglect, or because someone feels the need to preserve things as they were. Not sure which is at work here, but Im glad of it. The grain train passes the classic Santa Fe station sign at Bragdon with 115 cars of grain. |

I headed east on US 50, which would take me into Kansas. I stopped for fuel on the far eastern edge of Pueblo, across from the ex Santa Fe line going east, where there was the DPU on a Texas bound coal train, seen here from across the road. |
