Lots of good shots here lately!
Modern power at old rails, we are at the ex Rio Grande Pleasant Valley Branch.
One of Uncle Petes coal trains heads up the 1% grade at track speed. The train will load at Skyline Mine, some 15 miles further up the line.
With AC4400CWs being the usual power on ex Grande rails in this era, a SD70ACe and ES44AC are not to common.
