Now that is one very large building! This is the loadout for the relatively new Black Thunder West mine. When I was last in the Powder River Basin in 2008, this facility was not yet complete. However, it is complete now as a UP empty loads at the tipple. A BNSF train (which has already loaded) sits on an outbound track in the distance, awaiting a crew.
