Just west of the Continental Divide, the valley really opens up and passenger trains can reach 60 MPH between Fraser and Tabernash. This westbound UP officer's special is not moving anywhere that fast as it is approaching an Approach (yellow) signal at East Tabernash. The train will hold the main to wait for the eastbound California Zephyr.

At the east switch of Tabernash, an eastbound oil train passes underneath US-40 and starts the steepest part of the climb up to the Moffat Tunnel.
