Fracking Sand Westbound
A westbound train of fracking sand climbs the 2% grade below Tunnel 1 on the Moffat Road. These heavy trains of sand are quite a show. This particular train was cut in two at Denver for the Rocky Mountain grades. Several years ago the Union Pacific asked me to do a large photo mural for the Denver Office building and this is the photo they selected, there is a large 6 foot tall version of this photo in the building... They asked me to fix the ugly 2nd motor :)
I posted another frame of this train previously and decided I liked this one more...Nice part about Flickr is you can do what you want :)
