Dates:6/28/1998 - 9/28/2010
Album Info:Starting at Milepost 0.0 at Denver Union Terminal and running to Milepost 99.9 At Speer, WY, the Greeley Sub is often overlooked for the more scenic Moffat Line and Joint Line. Several local freights are based out of La Salle and a variety of freight trains can be found on the Greeley Sub. The line is also used for break-in runs of the UP's steam locomotives. This is a brief look at the Greeley sub between 1998 and 2010.
