This westbound BNSF oil empty is entering the mainline from the siding at the west end of Tolland. Note the yellow schoolhouse on the left side of the shot. This schoolhouse has been a fixture in Tolland for decades. Westbound passenger trains, such as the Zephyr, use it as a marker on the approach to the Moffat Tunnel.
