About the worst aggregate I have ever seen - the concrete is much stronger with angular aggregate.
Probably from stream gravel deposits from the S. Platte River about a mile to the west. Possibly 50 to 60 years old. Today most of our aggregates come from crusher plants, so it is much sharper and more uniform.

This particular Class 56 locomotive was built at BREL, Doncaster Works, being delivered in November 1978. It would join the EW&S fleet in 1995 and following withdrawal, it was later reinstated and gained the 'fertis' branding pending possible use on construction trains in France. In due course was given a new lease of life and can be seen in 2023 in Colas Rail Freight colours and aptly named 'Survival'. I do like a happy ending!

Many mainlines in the country have a lot of industries along the line that are serviced by local freights. Alas, the Moffat is not one of those mainlines. In fact, the only remaining industry served by a local between Denver and Bond is the Arcosa Lightweight aggregate plant. It is located at the far north end of the Rocky Flat Industrial Lead, about four miles north of Rocky. Here is an overview of the plant and almost two dozen covered hoppers at the plant. A pair of GP40-2s just dropped off three more covered hoppers for the plant.
