On a beautiful September afternoon, a UP manifest heads west down the main at Leyden. This manifest is one that doesn't show up on the Moffat too often. Rather than running to Roper, UT (the MNYRO) or even to Grand Junction, CO (the MNYGJ), this manifest is headed for the Craig Branch! It will terminate at the yard in Phippsburg, CO (the MNYPHX).
