KCS leader in Western Colorado
Author: SP8595

Kansas City Southern ES44AC #4765 leads this Eastbound Union Pacific loaded coal train through De Beque Canyon and alongside the Colorado River at Tunnel Siding. It originated at the W. Elk Mine which is located at the very end of the North Fork Branch and is heading to the trans-load facility at Cora IL.

Beautiful shot and great setting! What’s that translucent stuff in the foreground?

Nice shot and scenery.  Good that you can get a Belle out there every once in a while.
