The Rock Train |
| Description: |
The Rock Train (RPUPU) makes it's first trip of 2009. A friend and I ventured to Parkdale last month and saw coal hoppers stored in the loop used by the rock train and we were EXTREMELY happy to see the Rock Train had returned! This means more than just the Royal Gorge scenic train goes through the Royal Gorge! |

The snow started falling the night before, so I knew it would be a good day to go shoot some trains. Here is the BNSF Big Lift Local. There used to be a local working out of Colorado Springs but they consolidated it. Maybe when traffic picks up again they will return the Colorado Springs Local. |
