Denver & Rio Grande Western

Denver & Rio Grande Western [Southern Pacific]
Colorado (Tennessee Pass Tunnel)
June 6, 1996




A westbound freight with midtrain helpers is seen here entering the east portal of the Tennessee Pass Tunnel. Although the passing siding is empty at the moment, it wasn't unusual at this time to see two or even three trains waiting their turn for the tunnel.
