A single UP SD70ACe brings up a (somewhat rare) eastbound coal load. The train is currently tied down in the siding at Granby. Apparently, one of the units on the train failed as the train was moving through Fraser Canyon. The crew backed the train down between switches at Granby. It currently waits for an additional unit from Denver.
