An eastbound UP coal load is making final preparations to depart the siding of Granby eastbound. Take notice of the two "yellow/red" board that are either side of the track, near the front of the train. Union Pacific has a "Form B" (a work zone) setup between MP 75.65 and MP 75.88. The work zone is protected by similar looking "boards", but they are all-red. Trains are not allowed to pass the red boards without explicit permission from the track foreman in charge of the work zone. In this case, crews are working on the new platform at Granby.
