Due to the decline in the economy in the last few years, the West Local (formerly the Rocky Local) has gone from a twice-a-week job on Tuesday's and Thursday's to a once-a-week job on Wednesday's. Here, the West Local is returning to Denver with nine covered hoppers and a tank car. A GP40-2 and a GP38-2 provide power for the train.
