This empty rail train departed Provo, UT a day earlier. It came off the LA&SL (via UP's Sharp Sub) and the came east over the Grande. I did not think I was going to get any shots of it because it didn't leave Bond until 12:40pm. This time of year, I figured there was no chance it would reach the Front Range before sunset. But with green signals the entire trip, it made amazing time and was at Leyden by 5pm!
