The Westbound California Zephyr is running on time as it knocks down the signal at west Crescent. Gross Reservoir stands in the background.

This is also one of my favorites! Keep this spot in mind for future trips, because Gross Reservoir is one of the few "Only by rail" parts of Colorado.

You know Jim, you may well be correct! I didn't even think to count as it was rolling past me. Unfortunately, my dang camera battery died after this shot (thank goodness it waited that long), so I didn't get one with the whole train.

Looks like a little longer than usual-- are there four sleepers ahead of the lounge? Id appears that the diner is behind the lounge too. Nice to see the consist less "generic" than usual...  
 
Nice photo, wish I could be there!
