Yard Shots CSX
The "CSX" on the side of CSX 8828 looks more like just "CS" at this point. Leaking oil has done a pretty good job of obscuring much of the engineers side of the unit. Rebuilt from an SD40, the unit currently wears the so-called "Dark Future" paint scheme.

Yard Shots BNSF
The first repaint of a GP60M in the Wedgie / Power Bar / H3 scheme, BNSF 130 sits near the engine house at 38th Street. The unit was fairly well hidden, so this was the best shot I could get.

Yard Shots Union Pacific, Rio Grande
One of the defining beacons in Denver for the past decade or so has been the so-called Quest building. The word Qwest is on all four sides of the building and at night they are illuminated very brightly in blue! On this Sunday afternoon, UP 1989 and three SD70M's have been fueled and are waiting to head south on the MNYPU, bound for Pueblo, CO.

Normally, I would never include a picture in the gallery with such an obvious and glaring eye sore obstructing the subject of the photo. However, considering it was the Rio Grande Heritage Unit (and considering it may never be at DUT again), I took the shot! Unit was on track four at the station for the Wheels and Motion Transporation Fair.

Limon (UP) Union Pacific
Heavy rains in the Denver area in the last two days have resulted in quite a few pools of water forming, particularly around the tracks. Here, the MLMDVX (Limon to Denver extra) has just passed Quebec street on the Limon Sub heading west toward Denver. 36th street would have the train hold at Steele Street until a place could be cleared for the train.
