The westbound Zephyr is approaching a clear (green) signal at the west end of East Portal. For many decades, trains could not get a signal more favorable that an approach (yellow) going in to the tunnel. However, when UP replaced the signals on the Moffat, a change was made and clear (green) signals are now available heading in to the 6.2 mile-long tunnel.
