Not far west of Cliff, this BNSF oil empty is headed west after meeting an eastbound BNSF manifest (the Provo-Denver) at Cliff. The train will now have clear signals until meeting the eastbound Zephyr, currently still quite a ways off over around Glenwood Springs.

Just west of Tunnel 30, the Rocky Mountaineer's "Rockies to the Red Rocks" follows along South Boulder Creek in the narrow canyon just east of Rollins. The GP40-3s are kicking up some exhaust as the train snakes its way west.

The westbound Rocky Mountaineer is between Cliff and Rollins in the area known as Pactolus, passing by the signal at MP 39.9. The train had an Approach Diverging (yellow over yellow) signal at the intermediate as the train will be taking the siding at Rollins. An eastbound UP coal load is already sitting on the main, waiting for the train to arrive.
