Remarks & Notes 
The sun rises directly over the Denver skyline, just a blip on the horizon from this vantage point about 16 miles away. Below, a coal train is stretched out over Big Ten Curve as it begins the climb up the front range toward the Continental Divide and the mines of northern Colorado.

A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
