Скачать или смотреть The Calif. Zephyr in Ft. Morgan on 19DEC2025

This morning's California Zephyr #5 arrived in Fort Morgan at 0550 MST. (7 min. late). P42s #18 & #50 provided the power to the 8-car train which stopped with car 7 (coach) to the west platform for service to 10 detraining passengers and then 2 new travelers boarded the coach for a ride to Denver. We also meet Ally. She is a new conductor working on this section. With all of the luggage accounted for (they think) and the correct passengers both off and on, the high ball was given and on a clear signal, the Zephyr ramped up the amps rolling west toward its next stop at Union Station in Denver as it makes the trek to Emeryville.
My thanks to the operating crew for the greeting from the cab and the chance to greet Ally. I also enjoyed the chat with the person there to greet his in-law.
Everyone please stay safe!
