This California Zephyr #5 made its station stop in Fort Morgan at 0610 MST (1 hr. & 5 min. late). P42s #198 & #5 (imagine that!) brought the 8-car train to a stop with cars 7 & 8 to the station platform for passenger service. There were 2 departing passengers from car 8 then the action shifted to car 7 where 5 new patrons boarded. With the passenger work safely completed, the high ball was given and on a clear signal, the Zephyr departed for Union Station in Denver as its next stop on the way to Emeryville, CA.
Thanks to the crew for the greetings this morning.
Everyone please stay safe!
Temp. 19 F. Wind chill 9 F.
Therre should be another video this morning as the #6 Zephyr is in Denver as I write this and due here around 0800 this morning.

Good afternoon, db4239; Thanks for stopping by and the comments. That does ring like a decent wager on the horse racing. I haven't checked my log, but it has been a while since I've seen that engine in that train. LOL! Have a great Sunday afternoon and evening. Please take care and stay safe!

Hi again, Papa Geoff; We did make it to 47 F. here yesterday and are to see that again today. More ice and snow melting off the streets. It's 26 F. as I write this at 0415 MST. Warmest here in several days. Time to head for the beach with the SPF-10 suntan lotion. LOL!! Take care and stay safe down there. High ball! On a clear! Gonna move!

Welcome back Mike! And that's why there's dents in the doors! 😂 Looked like a lot of snow, in the doorway. He needed a broom! Glad they are running again! Makes my day! Last year they were not running specific days. Will that start again? I hope not.. Gonna watch for 6.. Have a warm Sunday! Jean

Good afternoon, Jean; I thank you for stopping by along with the comments. Glad he was wearing steel toed shoes. I think a better option would have been a water hose with 212-degree hot water to wash it out with. Needed to do that in car 8 as well. I think the missing days are due to weather not playing fair. Or something like that. There was a lot of drifting snow across Nebraska from that storm. BNSF had the rotary snowplows on the prowl in several areas of that state and video of the plows in action have been posted on KZfaq. Interesting. The passenger loading is up again this year and as long as it keeps up the trains will run as they can. Have a great Sunday afternoon and evening back there. Marne posted hid video as well. Please take care and stay safe!

Good morning, David; Thanks for sticking around and the comments on today's #5. I doubled checked this morning as to the camera operation. More on that in a different video that I will post later. Looks as though the January warmup is here. The stock show ends today and so does the arctic blast we had. Enjoy your Sunday over there. Please take care and stay safe!

Good morning, Ben; Thanks for dropping by along with the comments. I'll send some tempering temperatures your way just as soon as we are done with 'em out here. LOL! It is 34 F as I write this at 1130 MST. We are to reach into the mid 40s today and then for a while more. BUT the caveat is it is still the middle of winter! The National Western Stock Show in Denver lived up to having the lowest temperatures during the event and it did. That ends today and the temps are rising just to set us up for another cold spell. The coffee was good and warm this morning. I am working on my 3rd cup now. Have a great afternoon and evening back there. Please take care, stay warm, and safe!

Good Sunday morning Mike. Okay, a late station stop. Hope the porter got that door shut completely. It must have been the weather again somewhere from Iowa to across Nebraska for them to run late like they did this morning. Clear weather here in Iowa. Just cold. However freezing rain begins tonight and into tomorrow for us😕. We haven’t had any snow melting yet. Do have a great weekend and Sunday today! Appreciate you sharing this with us! Stay warm out there! Regards always! Mark in Iowa.

Good morning, Mark; Thanks for stopping by along with the comments. He was still working on it as they rolled west. Also needed to return to car 8 and lock down that door too. There was enough ice buildup to hold a hockey match. (GO AVES!) Yep. I am a hockey fan. Anyway, the ice and stuff were from Iowa and eastern Nebraska. Still plenty cold and slick back there. I'll send some warmer air your way tomorrow. Gotta use some of it here first. LOL! Yake care, stay warm, and safe!

Good afternoon, sarahjane; Thank you for looking in as well as the comments. Had a difficult time tracking this train as AMTRAKs tracker map only showed location and speed. Everything else was null. Two other tracker maps were the same, but I did keep an eye on it as it crossed the western half of Nebraska and into Colorado. What fun! It is 43 F. here as I write this at 1233 MST. Won't get too much warmer here. I'll send it all east later. LOL! Have a great Sunday afternoon and evening down there. Please take care, stay warm, and safe!

Good morning Mike and Happy Sunday from Colorado's Favorite Ski Area! Just got done doing my volunteer duties for the Ski Train. Saw #6 was 12.5 hours late into Denver this morning. Must've been pretty crowded with 3 Amtrak trains in the vicinity of DUS. Hopefully a sign of things to come with Colorado getting more passenger trains along the Front Range Corridor and the Moffat Road to Steamboat and Craig.

Good morning, Michael; Thanks for dropping by as well as the comments. There was a "traffic jam" at DUS this morning. Thay may have to put on more help around the AMTRAK area. LOL! I haven't confirmed but have grapevine news that WPE is basically sold out for the season. If so, awesome! It is just great to have it running again this year. As it is right now, I'd rather AMTRAK and the state put the money into updating the safety fixtures at this station and a couple others. Once that is under control, then pursue the Front Range passenger traffic. I am afraid AMTRAK will allow any stations along the front range to fall into the same shape our 101-year-old station is out here. Just looking out for us elderly and geezers. LOL! Have a great day over there. Take care and stay safe!

Hello Mike. Glad to see you and #5 this morning. Happy to see the record button was on. The first three signs of old age are, the loss of memory. and I can't remember the other two. LOL. I saw you at at the station in Jay Rocks video. I just discovered his sight as well. It has been bitterly cold here in Ohio. Single temperatures both highs and lows. Very hard to work outside in this weather when it feels like you have pounds of clothes on to stay warm! However, this week is going to be quite warm for this time of year. Starting tomorrow the warm up begins with a couple of days later in the week in the 50's. I welcome it after last week! Well I have to go for now, take care and stay warm. Conductor Dave.

Good afternoon, Conductor Dave; Thanks for stopping by and the comments. Yep. More on the REC button in a later video. Due up well after 1200 MST (1400 your time). Hint: I found it! A video that is. Marne will have a post of the very late #6 in a little bit. Check it out as well. I looked for but didn't see Jay and Rachel for the #6 train. We started the January warmup here yesterday with the temps headed into the mid 40s today. Supposed to stay in that range for a while. Just don't get too used to the warmer stuff. Half of winter still to go. Have a great Sunday afternoon and evening back there. Take care, stay warm, and safe!
