Moffat Tunnel (UP) Union Pacific
It appears that Union Pacific is planning to replace some ties on the Moffat in the not-too-distant future. The West Local ran out of North Yard two days early and spotted these three gondolas in the house track here at Rocky.

Moffat Tunnel (UP) BNSF
BNSF 8523 and two GEs work to pull an empty oil train up and around Big Ten Curve. BNSF frequently runs oil trains with six units on the head end, so the power is present to run eastbound (on the oil load) in a 3x3 configuration. However, these three units are the only units on this westbound. BNSF will be getting three additional units from somewhere else when the train is ready to head east.
