As a pair of light units make their way toward Utah Jct to head into the yard, the front half of a coal load prepares to make a reverse move to connect with the back half of the train on the other side of Pecos Crossover. And, while that is happening, a northbound BNSF manifest is headed for the BNSF Front Range Sub as well!

Moffat Tunnel (UP) BNSF
A pair of SD70ACes bring up the tail end of BNSF's Provo-Denver manifest as it passes by the north end of UP's North Yard on the main track. Several decades ago, the open dirt area to the right was used for loading and unloading an intermodal train that ran between North Yard and Salt Lake City. Alas, all such trains these days run on the Greeley Sub to the Overland Route rather than over the Moffat, as some of the tunnels on the Moffat are not high enough to accommodate double stacks. Speaking of double stacks, note the BNSF yard job, switching around some double stacks at BNSF's Rennicks Yard.

Just west of Utah Jct, an 80 minute late westbound Zephyr is on North Yard siding, passing by a manifest that is waiting to back in to North Yard.
