On the morning of July 31, 1996, a Southern Pacific coal train climbs through the Crater Loops at Crater, Colorado on the Craig Branch. Five General Electric AC4400CWs power the train, with two on the point, two mid-train, and one following up on the rear of the train. In the middle background, the line climbing through Volcano can be seen on the side of the mountains, where this train will be working in another five track-miles or so.
