An unit oil train makes its way around Big Ten Curve as it continues its journey east. As the demand for coal has been decreasing, the demand for oil has been increasing! A new oil load out has been built at Wash (just outside Wellington, UT). Currently, the load out is producing about a train a week. Rumor has it the goal is get production up to a train a day.
