The morning Zephyr is working on getting out of Denver, crossing the north end of the Joint Line on Buck Lead. As you can see, there is a switch against the Zephyr, and the train has come to a stop. A conductor will hop off the train and walk up and throw the switch so the Zephyr can continue west. This is why the Zephyr will sometimes make a stop or two when departing.
