Jim Jones 150 pages softcover
This colorful, comprehensive chronicle tracks all pre-merger Union Pacific routes in Colorado during the last decades of the 20th Century, with rare scenes and anecdotes from those turbulent times. This publication stars steam locomotives 3985 and 844, mammoth DDA40X "Centennial" diesel 6936, rotary snow-thrower 900082, the E9 "covered wagon" trio, and everyday freights across all Colorado branches and spurs. You'll visit the Denver Pacific and Kansas Pacific mainlines plus the seldom photographed Julesburg, Dent, Fort Collins, Boulder Valley, Coalmont and Greeley East branches, as well as the Monfort and Boettcher Leads. See what you've been missing!
