This view is looking from the Hanna coal mines area back toward the Hanna coal marshaling yard. Allen scratch built the trestle for the mine access track which crosses over itself. The curves are all tight radii from the yard up to the end of the mines, so there are two sets of diesels for the Hanna coal drag job. There is a dedicated 4 axle diesel for yard to mines work, and a consist of RS-3's for the coal drag delivering coal from Hanna to Medicine Bow, Laramie, Harriman, and Cheyenne. At Cheyenne hopper loads are distributed to City Coal, the coal tower, the yard power house, and Wycon Chemical just west of Cheyenne. Naturally, the consist returns all empty hoppers back to the Hanna Yard.
