The Deseret Power Railway delivers coal to the Bonanza Power Plant in Utah from the Deserado Mine about 34 miles away. The line is completely isolated from the national rail network. One or sometimes two trips between the mine and power plant run on weekdays (Never on weekends if I recall), each delivering 45 loaded coal cars. This video was shot in late July 2023.

I thought the GE E60's stopped running in 2019. I am happy to see they are still going on this Railway. Greetings from the UK.

That was the black Mesa and lake Powell railroad in Arizona that closed. This is the deseret power railroad in Utah

I've been through Dinosaur, CO. It's literally in the middle of nowhere. Cool operation.

Nice video, how many trains do they run per day?

Great shots! If you don't mind me asking, on average when would you say they run?

@westernpennsylvaniarailfan 9 месяцев назад

seems like its in the morning. When I went they were already done with the first train by 11 and the second train started loading around 2. I think they only run two trains in a day once or twice a week. There is a couple public internet forms that have some more information.

To my knowledge they run 1-2 round trips per day Monday-Thursday with an extra trip on Friday if needed. From what I’ve heard they tend to run more trips earlier in the week and are less likely to run two trips on Thursday/Friday, but sometimes only 1 on Monday.

Was the line shut down for a period? It looks like the name of the plant it serves changed. Thank you for showing us this awesome oddity of american railroads.

Is this currently the only electric freight railway in the US after the Mesa and Najavo railways shut down? I know Iowa traction... but... like you know...
