This California Zephyr #5 arrived in Fort Morgan at 0552MDT (7 min. tardy).
Powering this 8-car train were P42s #15 & #194. They brought the consist to a stop with car 7 to the station platform for 5 departing passengers and 2 new patrons headed to Denver.
As the train approached Main St. crossing a south walking pedestrian dared the train to hit him. The walker managed to clear the tracks while the operator (engineer) laid on the horn. There may have been some pucker power in the cab as well.
With the station work safely competed, the high ball was given and on a clear signal into a restricted speed zone, the Zephyr rolled out of town toward its next stop at Denver's Union Station.
My thanks to the operating crew along with the passengers in the sightseer/lounge for the waves and greetings today.
Everyone please stay safe!
Temp. 59 F. Feels like 59 F.
Air Quality Alert still in effect for today as the smoke lingers.
Expected high temp today is 103 F. with several more days of the to follow.
