On the back side of Big Ten Curve, the westbound Zephyr heads into the sun on an afternoon in which it is running nearly five hours late. The back (south) side of Big Ten is actually a long straight section of track connecting the east side of Big Ten (where the wind break cars are) with the east end of Eisele (Clay). Note the giant steel structure located alongside the tracks at Chemical, roughly five rail miles to the east.
