This BNSF coal load is climbing west of the Moffat, its back half still in Tunnel 27 in the distance. Not far behind the head end, the hoppers are passing what was once Tunnel 28. However, the tunnel has long since been daylighted (blown up), and the tan-colored rock face is the only evidence that remains.
