While Byers Canyon may not be the most spectacular canyon the (former) Grande travels through, it still isn't something to just shrug off! There are constant 10-degree (read: very sharp) curves through the canyon and the sound of flanges on rail echo off the walls. Here, this coal empty is following the head waters of the Colorado River through the canyon.
