Thanks for the share.

Not sure.... I did hear 5 after Omaha will be taking the UP line tomorrow (5.28.18) and probably for a bit due to bridge damage.

I'm hearing that the 5 and 3 will be combined and head to KC. Looking at the Cam... a lot of people are getting off so it looks like this maybe the case.

I'm looking at a pic of the derailment (awaiting permission to publish). Part of the bridge is also damaged extensively. Expect delays and then some.

I'm watching the Galesburg cam as we speak. https://www.youtubeDOT com/watch?v=wQpMEc3_wDU

Just saw a report and pic of a BNSF coal train derailment on the BNSF Ottumwa Sub. Uknown location at this time but here's a pic of it. Pic by Bradley Greefe. Edited to add: this looks like west of Ottumwa, looking at Google Maps. The camera is facing east. Photo Credit(s): Midwest Railroad...

Looks like SWC and CZ will be delayed today. The tracks are messed up badly from this derailment: http://wgntv.com/2018/05/24/multi-car-freight-train-derailment-reported-in-aurora/ https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/Multi-Car-Freight-Train-Derails-in-Aurora-483623261.html Edited to add: I...

Yup you should be able to. Just talk to your conductor or SCA about times when you arrive. But check it out. It's a wonderful station. I'm local and it's one of the spots in Denver I'm proud of. The food inside though is a bit pricey, if you were looking to get something.

As a native, I can give a few: Next to the station is Rodizio Grill, a Brazilian steak house. Really good stuff. A little pricey but check for their groupon special. Denver Chop House is good as well, that's near there, about 2 blocks north. Jackson's across from Coors field isn't bad But my...

I make sandwiches or something along the lines like that when I am on the CZ going to or from Denver. I've even done subway once. But I'll bring a little extra with me, in case of emergencies. I will have little baggies of chips, cookies and jolly ranchers (Along those lines) as well with a...

There's not much left. I live south of there. It's now a wildlife refuge with no buildings left: https://goo.gl/maps/DmLEeVmeG9H2

We are also having some major snow issues here in Colorado. There are avalanche warnings that I haven't seen... ever. Snow resorts have closed due to too much snow. Be prepared for just about anything.

Seems like the Train is a hit: http://www.9news.com/news/travel/winter-park-express-the-seasons-first-trip/383520436 Report from yesterday, with views of the inside. http://kdvr.com/2017/01/06/winter-park-ski-train-makes-first-run-of-season-saturday/#ooid=piajJzODE6Ian-NzH1pZQKR2FWIjNq-l...

Thanks for the laugh :)

I've always loved Denver. Perhaps I am local. But what they did to it, wow. Really nice.

Yup... sorry when I posted that, I had 3 hours of sleep in 36 hours :D .

More info on the train: They are adding capacity to the train. It's doing well. More here at the local business paper: http://www.bizjournals.com/denver/news/2016/12/15/newwinter-park-ski-train-starting-jan-7th-already.html?ana=e_ae_set1&ed=2016-12-15&j=76772291&s=article_du&t=1481841357...

Just go through the station. It will take you to the platform where they will scan your ticket. You can access the platform from the west, but it's the same distance.

Late July last year, sleepers on the CZ were in the rear, at least my ride was. I know this because my room was the last room in the row. I "slept" in the H room. That was bumpy as heck. And 11 hours late... not a good trip.
