The westbound MNYRO (Manifest, North Yard to Roper) is stopped in the siding near the west end of Leyden. It is waiting for the westbound Zephyr, which is running on time this morning, to overtake it. It is a bit of a foggy morning out!

From out of the fog, the westbound California Zephyr run down the main past the waiting MNYRO. The dispatchers on the Moffat do a good job at keeping the Zephyr moving.

After passing by the MNYRO (which is sitting in the siding), the westbound Amtrak disappears back into the morning fog just as quickly as it emerged from it a few minutes earlier.

With the California Zephyr now a few blocks ahead (after passing by on the main), the MNYRO now has a clear signal to depart the siding westbound. The fog has actually gotten thicker since the Zephyr passed by.

Ouch! Talk about taking the scarlet and gray and patching it practically beyond recognition. In addition to the standard patch on the cab and the shield on the nose, note that "Union Pacific" has actually been placed on the long hood! The yellow frame stripe isn't helping out either.

A single C44AC-CTE is found pushing on the tail end of MNYRO just west of Leyden. The train is crossing over Indiana Street as it quickly disappears into the morning fog.
