We are at the steepest part of DRG&W's Soldier Summit Grade, as the Utah coal train hits the 2-1/2% grade. The Utah RWY coal train has slowed down a bit, but no problem as the 36000+ hp is still doing a fine job. He waste no time in getting the loaded coal train to the summit. The weather is starting to change as we get closer to the summit. In clip 4, we will have almost white-out conditions. There are six units on the head end, and six mid-train, they make short work of the hill. Lead units are 9010-9009-9003-5003-9004-2105, mid-train 9008-9007-9013-NREX 2033-9005-9006
