Six UP units lead the thrice-weekly MGJNY. The train is about 4,200 feet in length, with quite a few coal loads mixed into the train. Astute observers will note five covered hoppers in the distance, on the plateau above Barbara's Gulch. These cars are sitting on the Rocky Flats Industrial Lead near both CO-93 and CO-72.

An SD70ACe leads five GEs on the point of the Grand Junction to North Yard manifest. The head end is passing by Chem Spur, which hasn't been used in over a decade. Indeed, UP removed the frog for the turnout almost a decade ago. It's a little surprising they haven't removed the entire turnout.

Even though this MGJNY is not especially long, the train still has six units on the head end and a single DPU on the tail end. The train passes by the metal beast that has been rumored is scheduled for demolition.
