The westbound Zephyr wraps around the curve at the base of the north edge of Big Ten Loop. AMTK 60 and (freshly painted) AMTK 75 are leading the train this morning.

A mixed match set of P42DCs (one Phase 5, one Phase 7) leading the westbound Zephyr on the climb to Big Ten Loop on a beautiful Thursday morning in May.

Amtrak seems to be repainting P42DCs from Phase 5 to Phase 7 paint at a rate of around one every two weeks. AMTK 75 appears to be the latest to get the new scheme, second out on the westbound Zephyr this morning.

The foliage has reached its peak green levels at Eisele in a beautiful scene as the westbound Zephyr passes by on the main track at Eisele (Clay). It does look like the Lounge car, third from the end, could stand to receive some cleaning and/or polishing.

Throughout the course of a year, there is obviously lots of different color in the landscape as the season change. Of all the different scenes that appear, I think the scenes dominated by green landscape and blue skies are just about my favorite. Such is the case here as the westbound Zephyr emerges from Tunnel 1 and heads toward Plain.
