Moving on
Title:  Moving on
Description:  Needing to keep making progress toward home, I left the two Joint Line trains at Palmer Lake and resumed my trek south. If I had a couple more days, I could have shot a lot of trains here, I saw at least five from the road that I might otherwise have gone after. As I neared Pueblo, I caught up to this southbound grain move. This is the DPU, a grab shot out the window as I rolled down I 25.
