I will be out in Colorado in summer and I would like to know how many trains run on the Joint Line Daily for BNSF and UP?

Thanks

Currently 35-40 trains per day...has been as high as 65-70 per day ....UPRR /SP/DRGW contribution has dropped significantly because of what's happened east, west and south of Pueblo ...DRGW yard at Pueblo is a shell of its former self....C'mon out, still plenty to see.... hang out at Palmer Lake and watch the parade....
Mudchicken Nothing is worth taking the risk of losing a life over. Come home tonight in the same condition that you left home this morning in. Safety begins with ME.... cinscocom-west
