The westbound California Zephyr, running right on time, heads west on the main track at Crescent. The siding at Crescent is only 5,550 feet long, so it definitely one of the less-used sidings on the east slope of the Moffat. No meets this morning for the Zephyr as it has a straight shot west up to the Moffat Tunnel.
