Remarks & Notes

Running towards the early morning sun Amtrak's eastbound California Zephyr is approaching Rock Springs having passed the old station site of Kanda. A major maintenance of way project on the train's normal route via the former Rio Grande forced a week long detour of the 'Zephyrs' via the Wyoming mainline.

Even though Amtrak no longer serves the Cowboy State it had a strong presence in the past and trains occasionally detour through the state.

You've heard of the Wild West, but nothing like this.

The GE Genesis series are well known for being Amtrak's locomotive. With confirmation of retirement from Amtrak themselves, their time is limited. Now is your chance to catch them before the chargers arrive!
