After sitting in the siding at Plain to let the westbound Zephyr run around it and have two eastbound meet it (a UP coal load and a BNSF manifest), it is finally this westbound oil train's turn to head west. With only two units on the train, they are both throttled up, kicking up some exhaust, as they work to pull the train toward the west end of Plain.

A westbound oil train, which has been patiently sitting in the siding at Plain for over 90 minutes, finally gets its turn to head west! It is departing the siding on a clear (green) signal, and the two units leading the train are about to disappear in to Tunnel 2.
