On a rather brisk morning (about 25°F), an eastbound coal load glides east past the intermediate signal at MP 14.5. The train has a clear signal and will proceed to Bypass Track 2 in Denver. Ultimately, the train is headed for the Cherokee power plant in northeast Denver. Which, by the end of 2017, will burn natural gas exclusively.
