Moffat Tunnel (UP) Union Pacific, BNSF
Another BNSF coal train utilizing some trackage rights to run on the Moffat? Nope! This coal train is 100% Union Pacific. BNSF is paying back UP some power-sharing hours. UP decided to keep all seven units together and here are five of the seven (the other two are bringing up the rear)! The train started off at the Cherokee Power Plant on the Belt Line and is headed for the Energy Mine on the Craig Branch.

An eastbound Provo to Denver trackage rights train creeps its way through the siding at Plain. It is waiting for a meet with a westbound coal empty that is currently at Clay.

Ouch! Talk about your faded paint schemes! This has got to be just about the worst (sun-bleached) BNSF unit that I've ever seen. The interesting thing is that the orange is really the only color to drastically fade!

An eastbound BNSF manifest hold on the siding at Plain to meet with this westbound UP coal empty. UP? Yup! BNSF was paying back some power sharing hours and UP decided to run them on the Moffat.

Black and Orange running on the Moffat! Okay, so perhaps "Orange and Black" is a bit more accurate...two ES44ACs bring up the rear of a westbound UP coal empty headed for the Energy Mine on the Craig Branch. UP is borrowing some power from BNSF on this particular day.
