Two nights prior to this shot, a loaded 113-car sand train arrived in Denver. The sand was headed for the Craig Branch. UP broke the train up and sent 51 cars west the night before. On this day, another 43 cars were sent west on the train RDVXTS-08. The remaining 19 cars were kept in North Yard to be added to the MNYPHX-08.
