Amtrak's California Zephyr goes through the Moffat Tunnel in both directions everyday. I intercepted both #5 and #6 during my visit to Colorado in May.

  • about how long is that tunnel?

  • @mbw1001: 6.2 miles.

  • Nice to see coverage of both portholes. I'm guessing you did this on separate days, since there's no way you could beat a train going through the tunnel while you were going over the mountain.

  • That would be correct. I got the West Portal clip after I chased the ES44C4, but got the East Portal clips days before.
