A coal empty heads westbound (geographic northbound) through Converse Junction on Main 2 while a coal load sits on an outbound track from the North Antelope Mine.
For you signals fans, it is interesting to note that the signals on Mains 2 through 4 are absolute signals while the signal on Main 1 (far left) is actually an intermediate! Note the that the yellow signal has a "G" (grade) plate as well as a number board, making it an intermediate.

Converse Junction is a cool place to hang out in my opinion. In addition to the four main tracks along the Orin Subdivision, there are five leads for the Antelope Mine. Two are inbound only, two are outbound only, and the center can be used for either. Here, a Jacob's Ranch Mine load proceeds east on a clear signal on Main Four while a new Antelope Mine load pulls toward the junction to wait for its turn to depart.
