An eastbound coal load heads into the siding at Leyden to meet the westbound Zephyr. You have to love the southern exposure of the sun in Winter!

Running about 45 minutes late, the westbound California Zephyr heads west out of Leyden on a clear signal. The Christmas Eve train is taking some of those last minute travelers to their destination for Christmas!

Running on a clear signal, the westbound Zephyr is working to make up a few minutes as it heads west. The siding at Plain is empty as there aren't a lot of trains running on Christmas Eve!

A long coal empty slowly pulls into the siding at Plain to prepare for a meet with an eastbound coal load. The eastbound is still up at Cliff waiting for the westbound Zephyr, so this empty will be holding short of the grade crossing at Plain for about an hour.
