Across the Utah Desert [Union Pacific's Green River Sub]

Video Description

Taken from our 2013 DVD release, explore this remote and beautiful railroad main line framed by the majestic Book Cliffs between Grand Junction, Colorado and Helper, Utah. Hike into Ruby Canyon and see Amtrak's California Zephyr rolling beneath giant sandstone cliffs. Watch heavy Union Pacific coal trains climbing the grade at Thompson Cut. The scenic highlight of the route is the thirty-seven mile Cane Creek Branch near Moab that twists and winds between Arches and Canyonlands National Park.
