They have digital signs that deal with this. They are probably taking down the signs they used on construction.
Date: 09/24/17 09:06 Re: CZ back on the moffat till oct 1 Author: dan Maybe, or theycould be the signs that lead up to the digital ones, some of those variable signs are used where they want to lower the speeds less than 65
it was 75 in morning, then with the rain snow mix it was 65 in afternoon , with a fog advisory    Date: 09/24/17 09:55 Re: CZ back on the moffat till oct 1 Author: joemvcnj I see the 3rd sleeper car line is gone for the season. I am sure they could have cut and added it at Denver with little trouble when back in, but Amtrak doesn't want the revenue.
