Remarks & Notes

Rio Grande's eastbound Railblazer train #102 is 10 miles into its 570 mile overnight journey from Salt Lake City to Denver. The D&RGW charged $299 per trailer/container for a 14 hour ramp to ramp delivery. Apparently the service required eight piggybacks per trip for the D&RGW to break even.
