This coal train had very smooth sailing for the last 70 miles of its trip! It's had clear signals since Tabernash, only having to stop once to check a dragging equipment detector near Rollins. Here, the train is approach Leyden, about 11 miles away from its crew change point in Denver.

Great shot, some serious heat coming off those brake grids.
