The evening Zephyr is crossover over a couple of tracks in order to make a reverse move on the Passenger Lead toward Union Station. The South Platte River separates BNSF's Denver Yard from its Engine Facility. Three tracks cross the river, and those three tracks tend to be very busy most of the time as switch job use the tracks for a lead, mainline trains running to or from the Joint Line come through, trains headed for Rennicks and the Moffat come through here, and engine moves come through. This stretch of track is all yard limits and there is no CTC here.
