While the fill between Tunnel 2 and 3 (destroyed during flooding on Friday, September 13th) has been repaired to the point that trains can run on it. However, it needs a lot of reinforcement before the Moffat is truly reopened. A few coal trains are running during darkness, but work crews still have the main out of service during the day. Here, a single C44/60AC heads west toward the grade crossing at Blue Mountain.
