There aren't too many coal trains left on the Moffat, but there is a westbound empty on the move in the siding here at Rocky. It is meeting the MGJNY, and the meet will come close to being a rolling meet. A rolling meet is a meet in which neither train actually comes to a stop. The coal empty will continue rolling without stopping, but the manifest will come to a stop for about two minutes while the empty clear.
