Seven units lead a westbound coal empty headed for the Energy Mine on the Craig Branch. "A coal empty?", you might be asking. "That does not look like a coal hopper behind the power!" - and you would be correct. With the implementation of PSR (Precision Scheduled Railroading), UP is reducing the number of trains by combining some trains. In this case, manifest traffic that would be on the MNYPH is instead added to the point of coal empties.
