UP 7609 and two additional units leads a very long MNYGR on the main at Platteville. The 9600-foot train is well-blocked, with stretches of like cars that are probably headed to the same customer, or at least the same city. The train is slow rolling as it just passed an Approach (yellow) signal. It is meeting a southbound that has not yet cleared the north switch.
