In the middle of winter, the Zephyr arrives in Denver well after sunset, even when it is running right on time. However, you can catch it in a little bit of direct sunlight close to the Moffat Tunnel. Here, the train is passing by the handful of houses found in Tolland. Most are summer houses, currently boarded up and empty. However, one single house, which the Zephyr is about to pass, is home to a Gilpin County Sheriff.
