At 3:45am, a crew was called to hop on a "blade train" (a train with electricity-generating windmill blades) that was tied down in the siding at Mesa. The train departed Mesa around 5:45am. I got trackside just east of Deer Trail, the first spot where sunlight came out from behind morning clouds. Here, UP 1983 leads the train in the morning sun.
