Lately, more and more SD70ACes have been appearing on coal trains on the Moffat. It is a welcome sight (and sound) to this EMD fan as coal trains have been all but dominated by GE, particularly since UP put all their SD9043MACs in storage due to frame issues. Here, an SD70ACe is third out on the head end of this westbound empty, charging west on rails hidden by falling snow at East Portal.
