There is not a cloud in the sky on this chilly November morning. The re-routed ZSCDV-17 crosses over the highway 72 overpass as the train makes its way into Denver.

The ZSCDV once ran over the Moffat daily as the ZRODV. The train was moved off the Moffat and onto the Greeley Sub up to the Overland route in 2002. On November 16, a derailment forced the Z-train to once again run over the Moffat. At only 1,500 feet, the train resembles Rio Grande's Railblazer of the 1980's.

Denver's skyline pokes up above the cold morning fog as the ZSCDV-17 heads east into town. The train is hauling nothing but UPS trailers, bound for the intermodal ramp at 36th street.

Amtrak left Glenwood Springs just 39 minutes late, but by the time it reached Chemical, it was running over four hours late! The new intermediate at Chemical (MP 14.6) drops from a green signal to a red signal as Amtrak passes eastbound.
