This is to avoid blocking the grade crossing at County Road 73 in town. Once the westbound the train is meeting (the Z-train from Chicago) is about 10 miles away, the dispatcher will instruct the train to pull in to the clear.

It is really nice when the DPUs on the tail end of the train are facing the "right way". Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
