A UP coal load coming from the Black Thunder Mine is pulling east on Main One as a BNSF coal load comes into view on Main Two about two miles off in the distance. The Powder River Basin - one of the few places where you can watch coal train drag race!

An eastbound (geographically south) UP coal load on Main One meets a UP coal empty on Main Two at the intermediates at MP 96. Early morning breeze in the Powder River Basin blows loose coal dust off the top of the coal load.

A UP coal empty headed for the Jacob's Ranch Mine has a yellow signal as it proceeds north on Main Two. Note that this train can expect to meet two coal loads, one on Main One and one on Main Three (note the clear signals on the other two tracks).
