Despite the fact it has been a decade since Genesee and Wyoming bought Utah Railway, more than half the engines still wear the red and gray scheme. However, UR 5005 now sports the bright orange that is standard on most Genesee and Wyoming railroads. This eastbound coal empty is passing through the Red Narrows, specifically at Narrows Crossover.

About two dozen new IPPX hoppers clearly stand out against the "classic" two-tone IPPX hoppers in the rest of this loaded Utah Railway coal train. I found it interesting that Main One in CWR here, while Main Two (on the right side) is jointed rail.

With the sun nearing the western horizon, UP 6774 highballs the signal at the crossover of Narrows. The train is currently running the "wrong way", proceeding west on Main Two. The train crossed over at Gilluly to avoid maintenance on Main One.
