A quintet of SD70's (an SD70ACe and four SD70MACs) lead up this BNSF coal empty which is headed west on the Moffat. Roughly once each month, BNSF runs this 75-car coal train west to load on the Utah Railway at the Wildcat Mine near Helper, UT. The train typically makes an early, pre-dawn departure from Denver. On this day, however, it was an mid-morning departure, allowing for some pictures.
