The journey is almost over! It has been a beautiful ride for passengers on Cheyenne Frontier Days, but the (morning) ride is nearly over. The train just received permission to enter "Form B" limits at Cheyenne and will cross over from Main 4 to Main 1 at CP W511. A "Form B" is a special form that allows train maintenance to occur on the tracks. No train can enter (or, once coming to a stop, move within) Form B limits without explicit verbal consent from the track foreman in charge.
