BNSF & UP haul an amazing quantity of coal out of the Powder River coal basin on BNSF's Orin Sub. We catch the trains of both roads from Orin Junction to Donkey Creek Junction. The line has had a major upgrade since our last visit due to the sheer volume of traffic. You'll enjoy side by side runby's, overtaking and lots of meets.

A great presentation of a wonderful area for trains. We really enjoyed this video. There is some narration that gives enough information on the area, plus some screen graphics with the mile points of passing trains. Non-railroad scenes include some of the scenery in the region, the landscape and a few animals along the way. Meets are not uncommon between trains, and some of the coal mines can be seen. With plans to see the Powder River Coal Basin this year, we found this video very good to help plan the trip, locations to see, and more. A well done video on a fascinating region.
