It has been longer than I care to admit since I manage to capture a meeting between coal trains on the Moffat! However, a westbound coal empty is waiting here in the siding at Eisele (Clay) for the coal load on the main. The empty is up against the signal at the west end, but still has about four cars to go in order to get in the clear at the east end. The coal load is going to have to stop and hopefully will fit between signals on the main.
