As is typical on the majority of BNSF coal train, this empty has a pair of DPUs on the tail end. The rain is leaving the Canyon Sub behind and is entering the Orin Sub and the southern end of the Powder River Basin.

Just south of Bridger Jct on BNSF's Canyon Subdivision, a westbound (geographic northbound) coal empty crosses over the North Platte River on Main 2. The addition of a second main here is relatively new, accounting for the different in style of the bridge compared to Main 1.

Always good to come across a Warbonnet. Even better to come across a Warbonnet whose paint is in relatively good shape! Other than being a little dirty, BNSF 778 still looks pretty darn good!

BNSF has a pair of loaded coal trains parked on Main 2 between Bridger Jct and Bona on the Canyon Sub. The second train has pulled up nearly as close as can be to the tail end of the first train! Currently, there are no crews on either train.

In order to get into Guernsey, WY, the BNSF Canyon Sub must cross the North Platte River. It does so over a truly impressive bridge just west of the switch into the yard. Here, an eastbound load crosses the river and enters the yard on a crystal clear, 90°F day.

BNSF's HLAUDEN rounds through the curves around MP 127 on the Canyon Subdivision. BNSF's Front Range Dispatcher handles the Casper Sub (which this train just came from) and the Front Range Sub (which this train is headed toward). The train leaves the authority of the Front Range Dispatcher for a thirty mile stretch between Bridger Junction and Wendover when it borrows the Canyon Sub. Here, it is in CTC territory and falls under the authority of the Orin Line Dispatcher.

This is a train (symbol) that I have shot many times before, although never in this location! This is BNSF's daily HLAUDEN (Laurel, MT to Denver, CO), but a bit further north than I usually see it. The train has just left the Casper Subdivision at Bridger Junction and is now on the Canyon Subdivision. BNSF is in the process of adding a second main track between Bridger Junction and Bona, a few miles south.
