Every once in awhile, something happens that causes the Zephyr to be really late. This is one such example as the Zephyr is 10 hours late and rolling through awesome evening light at Blue Mountain. A BNSF manifest derailed in Illinois and, as a result, the Zephyr had to pull all the way back to Chicago and get re-routed on a different subdivision around the derailment.
