At the west end of Soldier Summit, you can clearly see the grade quickly dropping off to start the descent. A BNSF coal train slows as it begins that descent on Main 1. A yellow (Approach) signal on Main 2 indicates that an eastbound is coming. Considering it is only an approach, more than likely the train is still a ways off.
