Remarks & Notes 
Unsure of what they're doing here ... they are on the main line (the bypass out of Cheyenne that splits left to Denver and right over the Harriman Cutoff), and a brakeman rides on the pilot with a radio. The train appears to be on the almost-exclusively-westbound Harriman Line, but it is rolling east (toward Cheyenne).

I did observe that the old, massive water tank that was at Speer until recently was now gone. I know that water tower had a lot of "hobo graffiti" and wish they had preserved it somehow, but I don't think they did.
