Mornin Mike, Happy 2025-good to hear you-thanks for your time & footage of #5-still no snow on ground in that vicinity-wow you guys are really dry-don't know if it's good or bad,looking forward to the 2 bowl games Thur.&Fri.,Welp have a great weekend, Jeb 😉
Hello Mike from Minnesota. I'm an avid Amtrak rider. My wife and I have ridden the Zephyr between Chicago and Denver many times to see the grandsons. We've never gotten on/off at Ft. Morgan but I enjoy your videos immensely. Almost like I'm there. Keep on posting and God love ya!
Good evening and thank you for dialing in as well as the comments. I appreciate it. It is nice to hear from Zephyr passengers that have passed thru here. It's all fun for me and I enjoy the Zephyr tremendously as well as the crews working that train. Have a great evening back there. Please take care, stay warm, and safe!
Good evening, James; Thanks for stopping by and the comments. BRRRR!!!! I don't need that here. But it is winter. Those temps are only a few miles east of here right now. Anyway, take care, stay arm, and safe!
Morning Mike. Boy, he put the door right in front of the FMG sign. Perfect! A little Foggy here and 27 degrees, not terrible. Have a great Friday and stay safe.
Good morning, David; Thanks for looking in and the comments. I noticed fog at Wiggins and some in the river bottom this morning. I had driven out near the airport to catch the meteorite shower early this morning. It was a clear sky, but I didn't see any streaks from the shooting stars. Oh well. Not the first time I have not seen any. Hope that you have a great Friday over there. Please take care and stay safe!
Good Morning Mike thanks for the catch of #5 today. we are heading into a deep freeze for awhile . 32 now and breezy but going to get colder. going out for some groceries and get ready to stay in for awhile. have a great day and keep warm.
Goodmorning, Ken; I thank you for dropping by and the comments. I think that we are getting the backside of what is headed your way. The weather guessers are pushing the thoughts of a little snow here tonight thru part of Saturday. I may have to push a little snow. LOL! Hope that you get your shopping done and are back indoors before it hits. Please take care, stay warm, and safe!
Good afternoon, John; Thank you for stopping by and the comments. Yep. The weather guessers out her have given us a 40% chance of precipitation tonight into tomorrow. That leaves 60% chance the precipitation will miss us here in the shadow of Wiggins hill. We will stay on the cold side. If it snows here, I'm ready with my snow removal equipment of the push type. Have a great Friday back there. Please take care and stay safe!
TGIF, Mike. The weekend looks promising except for having to take decorations down. House always looks so empty until I get readjusted. Man is it cold there. We're going down to freezing at night, but at least climb back to almost 60° in the day. This current "cold" snap is F/C to last more than a week. Whoa - starting to wish for Spring. Take care, stay safe and keep those mittens & ear muffs on.
Good morning, Jim; Thanks for tuning in and the comments. We are slated for some weather event tonight and tomorrow morning. If it happens, I'll have to hand shovel a bit of snow. Oh well. I think our outside lighting will stay up at least another week. We have taken part of the display down due to the winds. Just think. Another couple of weeks and we will be half thru winter. LOL! At least sunrise is starting to move in the correct direction by time. No matter what, I hope that you and yours have a great Friday back there. Please take care, stay warm, and safe!
Hey Mike, I must’ve missed it but what channel will you be on from now on? I was able to catch January 3, but I didn’t know what I should dial up on UA-cam. Appreciate the update.
Good afternoon, Geoffery; I thank you for looking in and the comments hereon the new channel. The original channel is now dormant and will remain so for a while as I start to clear it of the videos. That is down the road a bit but there is no new activity from me on that channel. Hit the subscribe for this channel and drop (unsubscribe) the original one. Please take care and stay safe!
Good morning Mike from 41 sunny mid Tenn. Good catch #5, good chat with AC, did he make that long walk to you just for conversation? Starting new year recovering from worse case of bronchitis ever in my 88 years. This year just has to improve with such a poor start for me. But with meds, loving caregiver & good hot soups and hot liquids i will persevere. Blessings of this day to you my friend.
Good afternoon, Ben; Thank you for dropping by and the comments. After Sam got the passenger work completed, he had some dwell time to kill. I enjoyed the chat. I am saddened to learn that you have a nasty case of bronchitis. Another viewer is also down and under the weather this first week of the new year. Been there. Done that. You have my sympathy. Hope that you can shake it rapidly. It sounds as though you have all the help you can need though. Please take care, stay warm, hydrated and safe!
Good evening, Mike; I thank you for looking in and the question. No. I wanted to be though. I am retired from the US Navy and then retired from a private sector company "Western Sugar Cooperative" here in Fort Morgan. I grew up in a railroad community in southeastern Nebraska and have always been interested in the railroads. Al of my long-distance travel is by train. Anyway. Have a great evening. Plese take care and stay safe!
Good Friday morning Mike! Currently clear and 12 degrees outside today and should be 21 degrees after bit. We got no more than an inch of new snow. We were fortunate! Was that Sam that walked up and said Hi to you? It almost looked like him. At any rate, go get your ears thawed out 😁! Have a great Friday out your way Sir! I assure you I’m doing my best to keep warm here! Mark in Iowa.
Good morning, Mark; Thanks for dialing in and the comments. I saw the snow the Zephyr collected along the way back there. The snow was tucked in on the trucks and back porch. Reminded me of what snow actually looks like. LOL! I was up early to see the meteorite shower this morning. I did get away from the light pollution a way but didn't see any of the streaks of that shower. Yep. That was. He had time to waste today. It was nice to shake his hand and chat a minute or two over the mechanical roar of the ventilation system for the sightseer/lounge car. My ears thawed quickly, and the fingers are still on the chilled side of warm. Amazing what coffee can do for the cool of the mornings. Have a great day back there. Plese take care, stay warm, and safe!
Good day, Robo; I thank you for dropping by and the question. Yes. I can catch the Zephyr from both the east (#5) and the west (#6). There are very long sightlines in both directions. I don't usually catch the #6 or east bound train as it usually runs thru here at night, and I have some obligations that keep me from being on the platform for it. But a good friend and coffee drinker Marne K_J 80701 does make it to the depot for the evening train. Have a great day! Please take care, stay cool, and safe down under!
Yeah Mike I'm looking forward to watching more and more videos on your new channel

Hi Mike, enjoying your videos. Are you a retired railroad worker?
