A few Hours at the Moffat Tunnel with AMTRAK & BNSF

- Spent a few hours at the windy Moffat Tunnel on a beautiful Fall afternoon and caught a little action. The MOW crew was getting ready to do some track work in the tunnel but had to wait for a couple of trains to pass first. Running late, the Westbound Amtrak California Zephyr came through at about noon. After waiting on the East side for the Amtrak to pass a Eastbound BNSF manifest came through a half hour later. The freight had five locos but only about fifty cars . . . tough neighborhood!

Very cool Stuff and I mean that. I am N scale and i model the line between Denver's Union Station to Winter Park Colorado or "the Ski Train". i am only a year old in the hobby, so i don't yet have my PA passenger trains running, nor have I expanded my line to reach any further than Eldorado Canyon, but I will be extending soon on the upcoming Thanksgiving break to what would approximately be the Gross Resevior. In a couple years :-) I will have made it here to where you sit in this video before popping out on the West side at Winter Park. Many of your videos interest me because of this so please keep them coming! Brian
I have an N Scale layout too! I like the drone videos because they often look like models since that is the angle you normally view a layout. This video is useful to modelers because it gives a good idea of how the track and ties actually look with their color variations.
Lucky man! Flew to Denver from UK to travel on all the Narrow Gauge lines in Colorado. Hired a car spent a few hours at the Moffat tunnel, there must have been a stoppage as never saw nothing. I seem to remember I used the toilets there? There seems to be a fenced area there now. But I did manage a flight in a B17 Flying Fortress ALUMINIUM OVERCAST out of Denver Centennial Airport, before travelling to Palmer Lake, Pikes Peak, Leadville, Cumbres and Silverton.
I may have been AC on that train. That was my conductor on the radio but can't remember if I was on that job at that time.
Nice vantage point! Thx for sharing.
Well done. You used your drone to get a fairly conventional angle - I like it.
I like to get fairly low and close. My original intent with the drone was to get reference materials for future paintings and model railroading. You can see some of the artwork on my website, FeightStudios.com
Great!🤗
Thanks! I love the horn echoes through the valley.
