This might just turn out to be one of my favorite shots of 2020! An opportunity to get a shot like this does not happen often for a few reasons. First, the Zephyr is detouring through Wyoming and is crossing the South Platte River along US-85 on the south edge of Evans, CO. That alone is rare enough. Adding to that, however, is the fact that the Zephyr departed Denver at 3:30pm rather than its normal time of 8:05am, setting up for the great evening light.
