The westbound California Zephyr is approaching the east switch of Utaline. The siding is so-named because the west switch falls right on the line of the Colorado/Utah border.

It is pretty impossible to get the right exposure on this shot on a clear day in the summer. The sun is on the north side of the canyon, guaranteeing trains will be in the shadows here. Regardless, we look down several hundred feet on the California Zephyr from the rim of Ruby Canyon.

Toward the west end of Ruby Canyon, McDonald Creek meets up with the Colorado River. Here, the California Zephyr crosses over the creek as it makes its way west. We are less than two miles away from the Colorado/Utah border (on the Colorado side).
