When I was driving a truck until late December 2019, I used to make a few deliveries to the Moab area every now and again. I normally drove south off Interstate 70 along US Highway 191. Along the 30 mile trip, you got to see the fantastic scenery and the rock formations as you got closer to Moab. Also, along the way, there was the Union Pacific railway line just off Highway 191. Once in a blue moon, I got to see the potash train with those big UP diesel locomotives belching the smoke out of the exhausts as it headed north pulling those heavy laden covered hoppers alongside the beautiful rock formations. You could spot the railfans along the way when you saw cars pull to the side, the cameras and video recorders came out and do their thing! Never been to Arches Park as they would not let commercial vehicles in. The scenery in Utah sure does not look anything like the scenery in East Tennessee! Nice photo, William! t brought back memories to me.

Utah does indeed have Amazing Scenery, just look at the sheer cliff above the train ! Arches, Capitol Reef National Park, Canyonlands just to name a few, along with the regular scenery in the state
