Is this heaven? No. It's Iowa.
A track maintenance procedure we don't often get to see.

Some notes on the video's description:

Rocky is the 1.5 mile long siding below the Big 10 curve where trains can wait their turn to use the single track Big 10.

Eisley, (actually Eisele) is the 1.2 mile long siding above the Big 10.

Plain is the 1.3 mile long siding between Moffat Tunnel District tunnels #1 & #2
