At the west switch of Leyden, the Ski Train makes its way west about a half hour after sunrise. The train had to run through the siding as a coal load was waiting on the main track.

Moffat Tunnel (UP) Union Pacific
UP's eastbound MRONY (Roper, UT to North Yard, CO) manifest typically arrives in Denver in the early morning hours. However, this particular train left Roper much later than normal. Consequently, it is late afternoon when it is arriving in town.

Moffat Tunnel (UP) Ski Train
A train full of tired skiers is only about 13 miles away from Union Station in Denver. I think this shot worked really well as a black and white photo.
