An overview of the UP facilities at South Morrill. This facility was built to be able to support all of the coal traffic headed for and coming out of the Powder River Basin on Chicago North Western and later Union Pacific. While coal traffic has declined, its use has not changed. Two westbound coal empties are waiting for their turn to head toward the mines.
