A UP crew works to get the head end power on this loaded oil train linked with the DPUs on the tail end. The crew brought the five units to Wash from Helper and put them together on the train. Once the link is complete and the air test is done, the train will depart east toward the Utah desert.

Most of the oil trains that run on the Moffat these days are headed to (if empty) or coming from (if loaded) this transloading facility located off the siding at Wash on the eastern edge of the town of Wellington, UT. You can see there are multiple tracks for loading oil in to tank cars here. On the siding at Wash on the left side of the shot, a BNSF manifest sits with the head end power detached. The head end power is dropping off four tank cars here at the facility.

In the siding of Wash, BNSF cuts the first four cars, all tank cars, away from the rest of the train. The tank cars will be spotted at the oil transload facility located here at Wash. After setting out the tank cars, the crew will put the train back together and continue west.

Amtrak 6 met the westbound Denver to Provo trackage rights train at the siding of Wash in the town of Wellington, UT. The sidings of Wellington and Wash lay right on top of one another. You can see the signals in the distance with the west switch of Wash leading directly into the east switch of Wellington.
