It is after 8pm and we are getting close to the longest day of the year (in the Denver area, anyway) as the westbound North Yard to Roper manifest knocks down the signal at the west end of Leyden. Getting the north side of a train lit here at West Leyden is possible between (roughly) April 10th and August 20th. The rest of the year, the sun is too far to the south to light the scene.
