After finally making it up Winston Hill, a westbound BNSF grain train slowly starts gaining some speed as the tracks level off through the siding of Winston. Meanwhile, a high priority manifest on the main prepares to depart just as soon as the signal at the east end turn green.

On a normal day, this shot would have some pretty fantastic mountains visible in the background. Unfortunately, a unprecedented number of forest fires in Montana have resulted in a thick, smoky haze over a good portion of the state. Despite the smoke, trains gotta keep rolling! Here, a westbound BNSF (loaded) grain train crawls into the siding at Winston. An eastbound BNSF manifest prepares to depart from the main after the grain train is in the clear.

A westbound loaded grain train is very slowly pulling in to the siding at Winston. The train has nearly made it up and over Winston Hill, the last major climb before reaching Helena. The train is taking the siding because there is an eastbound BNSF manifest sitting on the main.
