Probably one of the reasons Rocky is not in Union Station - interfering with Number 5 if 5 is late. Rocky has lots of time in the schedule and can still be "on time" to Glenwood Springs.

I bet the folks on RM were joking about not having to be stuck on Amtrak. -John Date: 08/18/21 16:12 Re: Rocky Mountaineer & Amtrak Pacing Utah Junction, Denver, CO Author: ProAmtrak Great clip!

Been enjoying your coverages of various train events here on TO, so thanks for your tireless reporting of them. I remember seeing you a bit further west from this location, documenting the Iowa Pacific SD9043MACs meant for their version of the ski train that did not run. Before I had a chance to say something, you were already gone! Date: 08/20/21 16:01 Re: Rocky Mountaineer & Amtrak Pacing Utah Junction, Denver, CO Author: 8notch Congrats on the VOTD
