"Single-night layovers are also possible for the Denver crew departing Mondays, but engineers and conductors bringing the eastbound to Grand Junction from their base at Salt Lake City have two-night layovers twice a week. “Alternate transportation” with flights, buses, or excruciating van rides could replace lengthy hotel stays".
