UP's MGJNY is approaching the east end of Eisele (Clay). The crew just called up DS-380 to inform him that the hotbox detector at MP 22.6 gave an axle count that did not match the count in the crew's paperwork. The detector indicated five more cars than what the crew believes they have. Consequently, operating procedures indicate the train cannot exceed 30 MPH for the rest of the trip in to Denver.
