Empties Through Yakima Canyon

An eastbound BNSF empty grain train snakes through Yakima Canyon after conquering Stampede Pass. This train is on the Yakima Valley Subdivision and was chased to Toppenish, Washington on September 30th, 2007. While chasing the train, it met with two westbounds and picked up empty grain cars at Wymer, a passing siding in the middle of the canyon.

I think there were a lot trains waiting for the other train to pass. When does the train give way to enter the siding?
