How can you not be a fan of the Moffat?? <br />The big ten curves right outside of Denver. Awesome views at Plain(view). The tunnel (enough said) and Fraser, Gore, and Byers canyon. Wow. Then go up the branch to P'burg and see your train winding behind you. There is no bad time to watch there. <br />The grade between Tabernash and Winter Park is still enough to give the big AC's problems even today. And there is nothing like the sound of 6 AC4400CW's giving all they've got. <br />And for all you main-liners who like fast trains blowing by you, you can watch between Sulphur and Flat and see all the trains go past a 50 + MPH. <br />The Moffat has it all.
