Great territory, but my favorite diesel locomotives that trod this line were the green and cream, with maroon separator line, SD's. Guess they are all retired now. Those locomotives were dedicated to coal train service, exclusively.

There were a couple of very serious head-on collisions, at Wiggins and Roggen, CO in the 1990's. Resulted in a number of crew fatalities.   

Near-by Benkelman, NE was the home town of Wagon Master/Wagon Train TV show star, Ward Bond.

Excellent photos - - you join photographers Dick Kindig, Otto Perry and Joe Schick (a resident of Keenesburg, CO) !
