Western Railroad Discussion > An Unsuccessful But Successful DayDate: 05/24/16 18:27 An Unsuccessful But Successful Day Author: FrontRangeTrains Yesterday, myself, TO member "wheelnrail", and two of our friends visiting from Illinois were down in Southern Colorado to try and get the BNSF ballast train was gonna run over the Raton Subdivision over Raton Pass. However, once again the train got pushed back to today. And of course, it did run... However, we were able to make it a successful day even though it was also a failure. We started out in La Junta then followed the Raton Subdivision for 78 miles to Trinidad. From there, we grabbed lunch and headed north back to Pueblo. We then followed the Joint Line north and ended our day in Denver.

Is that the A-line train leaving? I thought the airport trains were on the tracks next to the station. Could the train seen be a test train on one of the lines to be opened later this year? Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 05/25/16 18:23 by Cumbresfan. |
