While an eastbound UP coal load waits for a rested crew in the holding yard at Bill, a westbound empty is not in need of a fresh crew. The current crew will go straight through Bill and on to the mine.

Orin (BNSF) Union Pacific
While the Orin Sub is jointly owned by both BNSF and Union Pacific, their operations in the sub are a bit different. UP has a small holding yard at Bill which is exclusively owned and used by Union Pacific, not BNSF. Depending on hours on the clock, some UP trains will stop at Bill for a crew change. There is a Travelodge across WY-59 from the yard that away crews use to rest. This was originally a Chicago & North Western holding yard before Union Pacific bought CNW in 1995. A southbound coal load is waiting for a rested crew in the hold yard here at Bill.
