The journey (by rail) from Glenwood Springs to Grand Junction is about 90 miles. The Zephyr does not waste much time on that journey! It can go at least 60 MPH for about 55 of those miles, and at least 70 MPH for 40 miles. One such stretch of 70 MPH track is seen here, just east of the small town of New Castle, CO.
