Labor Day finds this westbound coal empty sitting in the siding at Mesa. A zone crew has just untied the train and is preparing to take it in to North Yard for a power swap. Currently, the train is being led by an ES44AC, which is somewhat unusual for UP coal trains in Colorado.

Before continuing to the yard, however, the train must first wait for two eastbounds to come by before departing.
