The Q-EPKC is a priority intermodal train between El Paso and Kansas City. The train makes a crew change in Raton New Mexico. Our cameras pick up the Q-EPKC as it is stopped in Raton for its crew change.

While the "Q" is stopped, a BN powered unit tank train goes by eastbound and climbs Raton Pass to get to its destination in La Junta.

Shortly after the unit tank train leaves Raton a BN powered coal train with two SD60M "Tri-Clops" on the point, passes by the "Q" on the way to its final destination at Jansen Colorado, where it will be weighed on the scales in the C&W (Colorado & Wyoming) Yard.

AT&SF Company Brass are riding in the "Topeka" Business Car on the rear of the Q-EPKC so everyone must do a perfect job on this trip.

Follow the journey of all three trains as they make their way from Raton, over the pass, and downgrade on the Colorado side, as they travel east to their respective destinations.
