The first Zephyr I shot was yesterday's 21 hour late Zephyr, which was held at Fraser for 17 hours due to extremely high (90 MPH) winds around Big Ten. It's great to see green grass returning as we get deeper in to Spring. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Those trains had five units on them. It appears that, even though it only has five units (2x2x1), this oil train made it up and over the hill. Two mid-train DPUs roll east by the camera.

The lead SD70ACe has a badly damaged flag decal on the long hood. The second unit, an AC4400CW, hasn't seen a repaint in decades, from the looks of it.
