Just north of the small town of Nunn, NS 4004 and UP 7331 have 112 empty covered hoppers on the roll northbound. Not too far ahead and the dispatcher would give the train a high wind warning, with wind speeds up to 70 MPH reported. The empty trains "blow over" speed is 78 MPH, meaning the train will be able to continue to Cheyenne.
