Very little traffic is running during the day right now as maintenance continues to do some work on the line. But the California Zephyr returned to the line last Saturday and traffic at night has picked up. Here, a westbound manifest headed for Phippsburg on the Craig Branch crosses Simms Street in the afternoon. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

This particular manifest is headed for Phippsburg (or "P-Burg", as it is known on the railroad). From there, a local will run these hoppers to their destination(s) further west on the branch in Steamboat Springs or Craig.

This train will hold the main at Leyden for a bit until maintenance has cleared up. One thing to note is the signal itself. The signals at east Leyden are the only signals from the DRGW days (save for the signal bridge at Utah Junction) that have not yet been replaced.

Unfortunately, it was facing the "wrong way" for a picture. Even with that being the case, the unit itself - a C44AC-CTE - looks pretty good. These Tier 2 compliant variations on the AC4400CW are some of the most common units on Union Pacific's 8,000+ unit roster. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
