A single car is stopped at the 72nd Avenue grade crossing in Arvada, just east of Leyden. This grade crossing will no longer be here in roughly two years when the City of Arvada widens 72nd Avenue to four lanes and drops the road beneath the tracks here. For now, however, an eastbound BNSF coal load crosses the road at grade, as thousands of trains before it have done.
