Amtrak recently revived and restored their P40DCs for use in the fleet to assist the P42DCs that have been the standard for twenty years. Such was the case with the second unit on the eastbound Zephyr, seen here slowing for its station stop at Glenwood.

The eastbound California Zephyr has a clear signal at the west end of Azure. We will have a straight shot through Gore Canyon.

Gore Canyon! An amazing, vertical wall canyon that cannot be accessed by car. If you look closely, you can pick out the west portal of Tunnel 37.

Looking out the window of the Lounge Car on the Zephyr, the Colorado River is largely frozen at the bottom of Gore Canyon. The Zephyr is approaching Tunnels 36 and 35.

It is a beautiful, sunny (albeit cold) afternoon in Byers Canyon. The 10º curves in the canyon make it possible to see the head end of the Zephyr from the Lounge Car.
