An eastbound BNSF oil train sits in the siding at Rocky, waiting for the westbound Zephyr to come out of Denver. Currently, the siding at Leyden is filled with empty well cars, so it cannot be used for meets.

The westbound Zephyr climbs the grade on the north side of Big Ten Curve. The previous day, there was a 10 MPH slow order around Big Ten due to high winds. Today, however, the wind has died down and the Zephyr is moving at track speed.

AMTK 51 and 61 lead the westbound Zephyr up the north side of Big Ten Curve. The Zephyr had an extra lounge car on the end when it departed Chicago yesterday. It was dropped off in Denver this morning, although the reason is not clear.

The Zephyr has made it way up and around Big Ten Curve and is facing a clear (green) signal at the east end of Eisele (Clay). A cold front is moving in to the area, and the skies are overcast this morning.

Overcast skies this morning allowed for some different perspective of the westbound Zephyr (there are not in terrible light). The train is moving toward the west end of Eisele (Clay) as we look back toward Big Ten, Little Ten, and Rocky.
