On a rainy Wednesday afternoon, BNSF's Buck Local sits tucked away at the south end of the Lafayette Branch. There is a southbound on the siding at Broomfield (which the Lafayette Branch connects with), so the local has nowhere to go. In the foreground, the north siding switch of Broomfield. Soon, this switch will be moved about 4,000 feet north of the its currently location.
