Quite a bit going on in this shot. In additional to the manifest rolling east through the siding at Rocky, we see a regulator on the main to the right. You might also notice that the spur switch to the Rocky Flats Industrial Lead is also open. The main track here at Rocky is currently out-of-service. UP is checking for track damage on the main after a derailment last Friday. They are also storing some MOW equipment on the main and on the spur in the meantime. The tank car that derailed can be spotted to the left on the house track.
