Scratching the surface of the PRB Coal Trains. These photos were taken during travel in 2010 and 2012 in Guernsey Wyoming, near Glendo Reservoir and at Walker Road north of Douglas Wy. Key roads are I25, SR319 and SR59. Later trips were to Reno Junction and Douglas Wyoming. The Colorado-Wyoming Map published by Sonrisa Publications is an excellent resource showing RR locations, mileposts, equipment detectors and nearby roads.
Another set of photos near Reno Junction has been added from a weekend in June 2010. Key roads are SR59, SR450 and Hilight county Road. The proportions of the mining equipment, the facilities and the scenery is incredible. The little travel camera was very stretched for the early photos, a Nikon 5000 was used on later trips.
