One of the few hills in the desert is Thompson Hill, located just east of the town of Thompson, UT. While a heavy manifest might have a little bit of challenge, Amtrak can glide right over it. Here, AMTK 124 leads the eastbound Zephyr with nine cars just west of Thompson Cut at the apex of Thompson Hill.
