The crew on this westbound UP oil train just got off the "phone" (the radio) with the UP Mechanical Desk. The crew asked permission to bring the second unit online as they were concerned about stalling with the sole unit on the point. The desk gave the okay, and the second unit is now roaring to life, spitting out a bit of exhaust as it does so at the east switch of Rocky. Two of the three sun visors on the eastbound signal in the foreground have been ripped off in recent high winds.
