Colorado Trains June 2023
Hello all
This month I ventured back out trainside with a mission to produce my first actual video in a long time. This led to a trip on the Moffat Subdivision, catching Amtrak California Zephyr westbound and Rocky Mountaineer westbound. I also filmed around parts of the Joint Line as well. Hope you enjoy the video, hopefully I can get another one out soon. Take care
Joint Line Railfan, out

Royal Gorge Route CRRX 728
มุมมอง 366ปีที่แล้ว
A few weeks ago, 728 got the chance to pull the train again. Since its the off season, we arent running with the full train. So the light load meant 728 had a chance to run. So we threw it on for a week and it ran well. We did take if off since, as we no longer needed to run it. 728 was the first engine we purchased since the original equipment arrived back in the late 90s. Currently 728 remain...

The locomotive leading the train is one of the newly aquirred SD40-3 locomotives. These locomotives arrived from the now defunct Escalante and Western Railroad. On of the locomotives, CRRX 601, was painted in Rio G...

    Crossed the Gorge in 1962 - was and still am, very impressed,took the inclinded rail down to the River & of course went a 1,000 feet across the bridge also it was a 1,000 feet straight down to the river.There is the bridge, which we drove across in our car.

    Awesome cab & operation footage! Just hearing the sound of the F units on the headend brings me back to so many early memories from watching the America by Rail series featuring this railroad. My personal favorite horn was the All bells forward M5 that the #402 wore back around 2000. I really wish I knew the heritage of it because it sounded angelic during the time.

    • @jointlinerailfan403

      So 402 has been deemed out of service. Which means the likelyhood of it running ever again is slim to none. Currently 403 and the B unit are our only functioning F units
