If you’ve spent any amount of time in Colorado chances are you’ve ridden the train that takes you from concourse to concourse at Denver International Airport. In doing so, you’ve likely heard the iconic Alan Roach delivering messages, but every now and then the “voice” of the train gets a break and is replaced by a local celebrity.

The latest local celeb to grace the DIA train is former Colorado Rockies third baseman Vinny Castilla.

The Rockies are celebrating their 30th anniversary this season, and Castilla’s voicework at DIA is part of the celebration.

Here is the clip you can hear from the former “Blake Street Bomber” next time you’re at the airport…
