On main two, a UP coal load works its way west up the steep 2% grade, while on main one, a BNSF manifest runs parallel to the coal load, attempting to overcome the same grade. Interesting watching two trains "race" up Soldier Summit!

A BNSF manifest, the MDENSTO, creeps west on a yellow signal on main one at the siding of Kyune. Main two is on the far right, and the siding itself is a "center siding", running in between the two mainlines.

An eastbound Utah Railway coal empty, led by three unpatched Chicago North Western C44-9CWs leaves main two behind and takes the center siding at Kyune.

The sun is setting at the west end of the siding of Mounds. The sky is extrodinarily red because of a forest fire burning in the area. The resulting smoke has drifted across the western sky creating wonderful sunsets.
