On a beautiful December morning (just over 50°F), a westbound UP manifest crawls west just west of Leyden. The train is 10,754 tons and just under 4,200 feet in length. The train has 76 loads (and 3 empties), many of the loads being sand in covered hoppers. That is accounting for a lot of the weight. Great to see a morning westbound UP manifest on the Moffat!
