An extra P42DC has been added to the eastbound Zephyr as it comes around the corner and over the grade crossing at Crescent. The train had a standard Zephyr consist, so I'm not sure why the extra unit was there. My guess would be either that one of the two training units had a problem, or one of the three units is being transported to Chicago, perhaps for some maintenance.
