Where the Connell Branch met up with the UP at Hooper, actually Hooper Junction, the UP main is on a long, high fill. The branch passed under the main line before entering the small yard where Watco now stages its interchange traffic with UP. The tail of a wye track still passes under the UP main. Watco connects with UP using a steep connector that's not configured for the kind of traffic pattern you're looking for. Check your DeLorme atlas or some other good map for a better idea of what the tracks used to do in that area.
