We were eating a meal in a restaurant in Granby, CO, that was across the road from the Rio Grande. While we were there, two trains went by of all flats with military equipment on them, mostly artillery and support vehicles (at least that's what it looked like to me). The waitress commented that another train just like these went through a couple of hours earlier.
