This eastbound (geographically southbound) BNSF coal train on Main 3 is just five minutes behind a loaded UP coal train on Main 1. The trains are "racing" east over Logan Hill on their respective ways south out of the Powder River Basin. The dispatcher has informed both trains that they are the only trains heading up Logan Hill on their respective tracks, so they should not have to worry about slowing or coming to a stop on the grade.
