As this eastbound coal train slowly makes its way further out onto the plains, the Rocky Mountains slowly slip away over the horizon. However, at this spot just west of Bennett, the peaks still protrude over the top of the horizon. This coal train is running 2x1 - 2 units on the point and 1 DPU on the tail end. This is the typical configuration for all eastbound coal loads on the Limon Sub.
