D&RGW 5771 - pulled the California Zephyr and Rio Grande Zephyr through the Rockies. Restored to its Aspen gold and silver livery.

Represents a golden age of diesel passenger service. Worth remembering.

On the #Amtrak #5 #CaliforniaZephyr from #Denver #Colorado to #GreenRiver #Utah, one of the most beautiful train rides in the US. It’s a wonderful time of the year to enjoy the majestic views of the #ColoradoRockyMountains. Only bad thing is some idiot is singing behind me. Really?

🚂 Train station in Roseville, Calif. on Monday, July 21, 2025.

What year do you think it was built?

I was shocked to hear it was built in 1994! Inside is a collection of murals documenting the rail history of Roseville, which is home to the largest rail yard in California.

The California Zephyr III — Wanderlust Daniel A short stop with big views—Truckee and Lake Tahoe were worth every step off the train.

Part 3: Truckee & Tahoe
After hours on the train, a quick hike led to huge views. We swam, wandered, and soaked in the calm. The kind of stop that makes you want to return in another season.

Original post on mastodon.social

I have seen five fireworks shows while crossing Utah on the train tonight. also apparently red white and blue Christmas lights are a thing on 4th of July. also every little town has a beautiful clean train platform, looks like great public transit.

I’m both glad that I can't see their butts and glad that the tradition which gives this part of the river of the Moon River nickname hasn't gone away in the ~25 years since I last took this trip.
