Tinnel Tuesday.
Author: hank

An eastbound Denver and Rio Grande Western intermodal with lots of EMD power enters the west portal of Moffat tunnel at Winter Park, Colorado in October 1984.

Thanks for viewing.

I saw a man rather close to the tunnel and the track get blown down one day as the train was coming west..  And the diesel smoke is vented out that portal and looks almost like thundferstorn clouds.

So much to like.

Smoking diesels. Open hood doors.

Squealing flanges on 85ft flatcars. Interesting trailers.

Drgw hack.

Way cool, thanks for shooting a video of the entire train; interesting to see all those TOFC cars again, a DRGW hotshot, and with a caboose!

Looks like DRGW train #100.

We still have that rear tunnel motor on the ATN railroad in Gadsden, AL.  Unfortunately it broke down a few months ago and will probably never run again.  It is going to be donated to a museum. But.....I've run it.  The 5387. Painted in the same grey drab, but updated to SP colors after the merger.
