This eastbound coal load is on Main 1 after passing by a Diverging Advanced Approach (red over flashing yellow) signal. The train will stop with the mid-train swing helpers just short of the Pecos Crossover at CP DS004. There, the inbound crew and the outbound crew on the train will work together to cut the swing helpers out and put the train back together.
