BNSF 1659 Spruce 30 Dec 19
All Cascade Green as BNSF 1659 and BNSF 1933 bring the southbound Pikes Peak Local through Spruce, CO at the location of the old ATSF/DRGW crossover. It's been a little bit since the crossover was removed...going on 102 years ago...but the remnants, including the abutment I was standing on to get this shot, are still visible.
Photoshop alert: I removed a pole from the shrubs in front of the lead unit's plow as well as a vehicle on Spruce Mountain Road that was sticking out behind the rear hopper.
