A westbound coal empty is stopped at Adon Road east of Donkey Creek Yard awaiting for permission from the dispatcher to continue west. A train in the yard had to actually back out onto the main before heading west, and this empty had to wait here for the train to clear up.

East Donkey Creek is an impressive junction where two tracks from the Orin Sub (Power River Basin) come up from the south and meet with three tracks on the Black Hills Sub. This rail train is proceeding west toward Gillette.

Now this is some nice power! A Warbonnet leading an Oakway SD60 on a loaded rail train. I was particularly happy to see the SD60 as, until recently, these units had been idled due to a decrease in power needs on BNSF. In fact, the last time I shot one before this day was in October 2008, nearly three years earlier!
