Union Pacific is starting a significant maintenance project on the Moffat. It appears they are going to re-ballast much of the line (if not the entire thing). They are also going to re-tie the Moffat Tunnel itself. Here, a ballast train was preparing to head west and drop ballast. Unfortunately, the train broke the drawbar on the lead ballast car, so it is not going anywhere anytime soon!
