That's the Olney Springs water tower in the distance. http://www.drgw.net/gallery/v/news/Towner1Nov2015/dttx-759558-olneysprings_co-_1-nov-2015_-000.jpg.html 63077 Another cut of cars, between two relatively intact block signals. http://www.drgw.net/gallery/v/news/Towner1Nov2015/dttx-743261-olneysprings_co-_1-nov-2015_-000.jpg.html 63085 An example car - DTTX 743261. http://www.drgw.net/gallery/v/news/Towner1Nov2015/dttx-760338-olneysprings_co-_1-nov-2015_-000.jpg.html 63089 While the empty shoves did wonders for clearing the weeds from in the gauge, they didn't do much for the rest of the right-of-way. Thus, it's hard to get any shot of the cars without a pile of weeds. http://www.drgw.net/gallery/v/news/Towner1Nov2015/dttx-781096-olneysprings_co-_1-nov-2015_-000.jpg.html 63093 DTTX 781096, another typical stored car. http://www.drgw.net/gallery/v/news/Towner1Nov2015/smnr-3518-ordway_co-_1-nov-2015_-002.jpg.html 63069 SMNR 3518, A&K/V&S's only motive power on the line, rests on the west switch at Ordway. http://www.drgw.net/gallery/v/news/Towner1Nov2015/smnr-3518-ordway_co-_1-nov-2015_-000.jpg.html 63064 Another shot at Ordway. http://www.drgw.net/gallery/v/news/Towner1Nov2015/gecx-2041-lasanimas_co-_1-nov-2015_-002.jpg.html 63104 Having shot everything there was to shoot on the Towner, I turned my attentions south to the BNSF around La Junta. There I found GECX 2041 and 2043 powering a southbound coal load. Here we see it climbing out of the Arkansas River valley south of Las An http://www.drgw.net/gallery/v/news/Towner1Nov2015/gecx-2041-lasanimas_co-_1-nov-2015_-003.jpg.html 63108 Here's another shot of the train on one of the line's many wooden trestles. Wooden trestles are becoming an endangered species on mainlines, as BNSF has been replacing them at a pretty good clip. http://www.drgw.net/gallery/v/news/Towner1Nov2015/gecx-2043-lajunta_co-_1-nov-2015_-000.jpg.html 63100 Bringing up the rear is GECX 2041 and an SD70ACe.
