Almost without exception, Union Pacific runs coal trains on the Moffat in either a 2x3x1 configuration or a 2x2x2 configuration. Note I said almost. This is one of the exceptions. The train is set up in a 2x5x2 configuration (which I had actually never seen before), giving a total of nine units working to move the 115 car train east!
