This light power move is hot on the heals of a westbound BNSF manifest, so the train paused at a red intermediate at MP 14.5. With the signal now yellow (an Approach aspect), the unit throttle up and start accelerating. These 12 units make four sets of three swing helpers. The units will be placed in Glenwood and cut into eastbound coal loads coming out of Grand Junction.
