UP 5772 leads UP's Grand Junction to North Yard manifest around the north edge of Big Ten Curve. Note the solar-powered weather station to the right. It measures, among other things, the current wind speed and reports it back to UP headquarters in Omaha. If the wind speeds are high enough, a 10 MPH slow order is issued around Big Ten.
