The fact that Memorial Day is coming up fast and the fact that Utah Railway has more than likely reached their coal quotas for the month of May, the railroad is practically shut down! The four SD50s and one MK5000C seen in this picture are completely shut off, and only two cars sit in the parking lot of the Utah Railway headquarters.

Although Utah Railway often leases power for coal trains, that power tends to be reserved for head-end use. Here, six Utah Railway helpers (MK5000C+SD50 mix) is cut in near the end of a westbound coal load.
