This eastbound BNSF manifest passes over the east switch at Rocky, roughly 17 miles away from its destination in Denver. If you look closely, you will notice some lighter colored ballast underneath the lead unit of the train. The frog was just recently replaced by maintenance crews and some new ballast was put down as well to help with erosion from lost of precipitation.
