This eastbound oil train knocked down a yellow (approach) signal at the west end of Tabernash. The train will hold the main to allow the Canyon Spirit to run around it. The Canyon Spirit will run through the siding. Most of the time, the train that arrives first takes the siding. However, Tabernash is a bit unique as there is a grade crossing on the siding, but not on the main. Consequently, the first train to arrive typically holds the main at Tabernash.
