At one point, Rio Grande started to add two main tracks through all of Glenwood Canyon. However, the project proved to be too expensive, so it resulted in one very long siding, and three sidings overall in the canyon. Allen, toward the east end, is 14,250 feet long. Shoshone is very short at 3,960 feet, and almost connects to Allen, separated only by a short tunnel. Then, there is Grizzly, a 5,060 foot long siding is next, and it is here that we find this westbound oil empty.
