After the service stop in Colorado Springs, UP 844 and the 150 express highballs the depot, only to stop a quarter mile ahead at Bijou. Then we start forward again, but bad (good) news in the form of a southbound ballast train brings us to a stop at the begining of single track at North Colorado Springs Siding. This is also the location of where the old Rock Island from Limon used to meet the Joint Line. (Now I can say that I've caught the Living Legends on both sides of the Rock Island) While we're here, engineer Ed Dickens steps down from the cab and talks with us a little bit, and the Rock Train passes, dumping rock right along side us. Then, we highball once again, bound for Palmer Lake. This video is brought to you by yours truley, with additional photography brought to you by NVRRP Executive Ken Valdez. Rate. Comment. Subscribe.
