A westbound UP coal empty is led by a highly colorful consist in to the siding at Leyden. The train, led by BNSF 8001, will meet an eastbound BNSF manifest here in the siding. BNSF 8001 is an ES44C4, which were primarily designed for fast trains over (relatively) flat routes. Interesting to see one on a coal train!
