The westbound Zephyr arrived in Denver 9 minutes late, but ended up departing 1 hour and 45 minutes late. The reason being that AMTK 139 (the second P42DC) developed a mechanical issue. AMTK 142 is a "protection unit" that has been kept in Denver. Essentially, it's a spare unit for just such an occurrence. Three units is a little unusual to see on the Zephyr. Unfortunately, it mean that AMTK 161 (the Phase 1 Heritage unit) was no longer leading. Here, the westbound highballs through Leyden.
