What a nice spot. And even got a few locals. Train looks like a G1-Brooklyn. UPS and lots of hp/t.

Very nice video, thanks for posting. The windmill farm has been added since the last time I was there.

Beautiful !

I never shot there but maybe once getting an ex EL SDP45 painted SP.
Usually centered around Medicine Bow.

Not sure I like the windmill farm scenery.

I've always looked at this area and the distant mountains and tried to picture what it was like in the 1860's when the UP built through here.

And the antelope are cool too, used to race them along dirt roads in Southern Wyoming and northern Colorado.

Nice video. Wide, open spaces indeed.

Nice video...Is that one of the UP's hotshots? Was just wondering because it was rather short.
