At the far west (geographic north) end of the Powder River Basin, we find a rail train on Main 1. You are only going to find BNSF trains on this part of the Orin Sub as UP's ownership stops about 14 miles to the south at Caballo Jct, location of the northern most mine. The north end of Powder River connects in to BNSF's Black Hills Sub.

This BNSF rail train, while on Main 1 of the Orin Sub at the north end of the Powder River Basin, looks to be heading south in to the basin, it actually is not. It was working on the BNSF Black Hills Sub to the west. It is now going to park in Donkey Creek Yard to the east, but is first being wyed (turned around) to face west. You can see the train has an approach signal in the distance. Soon, it will back off the Orin Sub and in to a yard track in the yard.
