Looking east from the same spot as Photo #2, back towards Delta. The new Uncompahgre River bridge can barely be seen in the upper left.

The same view as the previous shot, but a bit tighter on the new right of way. It looks like they reused the Uncompahgre Street alignment through here. Also note the jog at the far end to connect with the existing branch up to the mines.

UP 6503 leads a coal load over the soon-to-be-abandoned track through Delta. That's the West 4th Street crossing just behind the power.
