The westbound Zephyr overtakes a load coal train that is sitting in the siding at Thompson. Fortunately, the coal train crew has only had to wait for about 15 minutes for the Zephyr to show up, and will receive signals to depart behind it and continue west. Note the house track, largely covered in weeds, just off the siding.
