At the west switch of Leyden, an eastbound (empty) ballast train enters the siding. It was so fantastic seeing a trio of SD70Ms...my personal favorite model EMD has released since the SD40-2. This particular ballast train came from the area around Tunnel, CO (near Grand Junction) and is headed for Cheyenne, probably for a refill!
