System map |
| Description: |
The RTD system map is displayed at all the stations. It shows not only the heavy rail lines but the light rail lines as well. Weve done the A, G, and N lines, all heavy rail. Need to get the mileage on the light rail lines, which are extensive, covering more distance than is obvious on the map, which is not to scale |

Coming back around |
| Description: |
If you stay in one place long enough, youll see the same equipment multiple times. This car for Potenza, a skin treatment, has already done a trip to Denver, and now is on it way back from the airport. Ive been here a couple hours; this is where I came in. I have to start back for home, and want to get some action on the Joint Line on the way. This is the last train Ill see on the RTD today. Ill be back in April for my wifes recheck at National Jewish Health. |

At the junction |
| Description: |
No, not a rail junction. This Santa Fe 2-6-2 is at the junction of US 50 and 350 in La Junta Colo, still a busy place on the BNSF. |
