Portland, CO, is parking location for Rock & Rail power during the day.  Typical operatioin keeps these units busy at night.  Day time moves are RARE.

Thank you very much! We can go by there on our way home from riding the Royal Gorge RR train.

Thanks to all the help, we drove right to the engine service area across from the cement plant on the way home Saturday.  The engines were plugged into power their and take on fuel there.  There is no apparent way to wash them.  Maybe they run through a washer in Pueblo?  There was no one around to ask about washing.

The main line track is behind engines in the photo
