The westbound California Zephyr, running right on time, heads west on the main track at Crescent. The siding at Crescent is only 5,550 feet long, so it definitely one of the less-used sidings on the east slope of the Moffat. No meets this morning for the Zephyr as it has a straight shot west up to the Moffat Tunnel.

AMTK 29 and AMTK 14 leads the California Zephyr as it crosses the grade crossing at Crescent. AMTK 29 was on the Winter Park Express just last Sunday. It was taken to Chicago on the Zephyr, and has now returned as one of the units on the Zephyr itself.

While there are no trains in this shot, I thought I'd post a shot of the progress on the raising of the dam. The project started in 2022 and is expected to be completed in 2027. The dam will be raised 131 feet, tripling the capacity of the reservoir, used for drinking water in Denver.
