This coal empty will load at the Skyline Mine at the end of nearly 19 mile long Pleasant Valley Subdivision. The only industry on the branch line is the mine. I am very fortunate that I had the opportunity to get a few shots from a truly beautiful line that sees little traffic.

UP 5941 is nearing the top of the climb through the valley with the Price river, approaching the Scofield Reservoir Dam.

The Pleasant Valley Sub follows the Price River through a valley that is virtual inaccessible except by rail and by foot. The relative lack of trains makes it even harder to shoot. I lucked into some perfect lighting and a coal empty climbing through the valley on this Saturday afternoon.
