No trans here, but found a plow and burro crane
Title:  No trans here, but found a plow and burro crane
Description:  Fo an extra bit of trivia, the UP Tracks here are on both thr Rio Grande and Colorado Midland grade. The Rio Grande tracks were originally on the opposite side of the Colorado River in the background. The buiilding on I-70 relocated the Rio Grandes' tracks to this location, which was the grade of the low-gone Colorado Midland RR that competed with the Rio Grande between Grand Junction and eastern Colorado.

Title:  UP 8015 and 6279 coming off of North Fork Subdivision in background.
Description:  This was the only Union Pacific action that I saw in Grand Junction. Alas, UP has removed most traffic from the Central Corridor. The BNSF power in the foreground is the BNSF local as they received trackage rights as part of the UP/SP merger.
