Looks like you timed this real good with the crossover under construction!  How to ruin a good trainwatching site.

I don't think I'd say that!  I was there a week ago, and might
get back tomorrow, and I shot from basically the spot this
video was taken.  It's a little harder to get to, but you can
get there.  And the views and traffic remain spectacular.  
The UP is now five tracks across, and somewhere
I read BNSF was going to double track the flyover but I saw
no evidence of that.  

As for the videos, interesting to note two BNSF hopper trains with
only TWO 3000hp units.  And I wonder what that first train was.  
Intermodals west of Lincoln to Alliance were not common.
