Kremmling, Colorado. Moffat Route. Only thing I saw was a pair of Rocky Mountaineer locomotives heading west. Did not get a photo.
A fancy big building, apparently middle of nowhere, with a disused spur? Something such as a former coal loadout?
Farther east along the Colorado River outside of Hot Sulfur Springs, nothing but empty tracks all the way to Fraser.
I don't think there's a coal loadout (active or otherwise) existing anywhere on the Denver-Glenwood Springs mainline, except the Craig Branch, of course. I wonder if it's a heavy industry/mill? It seems to have a rail spur, but it is wholly severed from the mainline.
It's for sale if you want it. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.050...4!1sp0zX_WwJ0lZwUwqPnEbSkQ!2e0!7i16384!8i8192
I can't find any information on it. If it were an active business, Google Maps would tell you who it was when you click on it. No such luck.
I was out in the Gorge yesterday, near Hood River, Oregon and saw this view and hoped a train would come, It didn't of course until I was back at the car. You can see the path where I was above the locomotives. It would look better not so backlit. I'll go back sometime soon. I have maybe a couple years until the trees obscure this view.
