FORT PIEGAN, MONTANA - 23 Jun 2018

Out on BNSF's Northern Transcon, the busy nature of this largely single-tracked railroad leads to a lot of meets, some of them involving more than two trains as dispatchers get creative with what double track there is available.

At the Fort Piegan crossover, two eastbound intermodal trains meet a westbound loaded grain train, all in the span of a few minutes.
