UP has a high-wide detector on the Moffat west of North Yard to ensure the entire train will fit through all the tunnels. The detector was once located at MP 6, but was moved east to MP 5.5 when the Arvada Siding was built. Well, it has been moved again, seen here at MP 8.4. It had to be moved again to accommodate the construction of the second main track between C&S Junction and Arvada.
