Photo ID: 108860 Date Shot Photo By Thursday, August 25, 2022 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed Rollins (8,320 ft) Rollinsville, CO 459 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Moffat Tunnel (UP) Amtrak The eastbound Zephyr has quite a colorful (and new) consist! There is no P42DC to be found. Instead, a quartet of Siemen-built ALC-42s lead the train east. These new units will slowly replace the aging P42DC fleet, at least on long distance trains. The lead unit, AMTK 301, sports a 50th Anniversary celebration scheme. The remaining three units wear the Phase VII scheme, the newest scheme introduced by Amtrak and the official scheme, for the time being, moving forward.

The train will go in to the siding at Rocky and tie down. In the distance, notice the earth movement that is the result of the new Canyon Pines neighborhood currently under construction.

Alas, the light had faded enough that it wasn't quite possible to get a shot without some motion blur visible. The Zephyr has been running on yellow signals since Crescent, following a slow-moving loaded UP oil train. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
