The westbound MNYRO made it a whole whopping 10 miles out of North Yard before being tied down in the siding at Leyden! There have been a lot of work windows on the Moffat lately during daylight hours. Once Amtrak comes through, the railroad more or less shuts down (for trains). The MNYRO was a little delayed getting out of the yard and thus had to spend the day at Leyden until the main was opened again in the evening. On this particular day, the train is over 6,000 feet long with 96 cars! There are two more units DPU'd on the tail end of the train.
