This coal train is not too far south of the southern border to the grounds of the Air Force Academy. One of the sidings along the single track main, aptly named "Academy", is entirely located on the grounds of the Air Force Academy itself. I'm not sure if crews have to go through any headaches if they have to get to the siding for a crew change!
