The loops at Gilluly were the answer. Here, a westbound coal load has come around a 180 degree curve near the west end of the siding of Gilluly. Note the defunct house track on the right side of the shot. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

A westbound Utah Railway coal load sits stopped on main two (foreground) waiting for an eastbound coal empty on main one. Main two is undergoing maintenance further west, so the Utah coal trainwill wait for the eastbound to pass before crossing over to main one.

Soon after the year 2000, DPU came to Utah and the tunnel motors were no longer needed. Here, they push on the back of the MRODV on main two at Gilluly.
