A northbound coal empty is led by seven units, six of which are "Green and Cream" SD70MACs. The second unit was once a high nose Norfolk Western SD40 (#1616). The unit (now GCFX 3073) was rebuilt to SD40-2 specs.

What were once warehouses used for industries are now upscale lofts in much of LoDo (Lower Downtown). Two of these lofts sit behind 9389 in this shot as 9389 sits on the passenger special on Track Three at Denver Union Station.

One of the Z-Trains that BNSF runs into and out of Denver is the ZDENCHI (Denver to Chicago) and its counterpart. They run seven days a week, save for Sundays. The ZDENCHI typically leaves early in the morning and this day was no exception. After meeting Amtrak at Prospect, the Z-Train departed Rennicks and is coming around the wye into 31st Street toward the Brush Sub.

A unit tank train sits tied down on Main 3 just south of the Evans Street Light Rail station. Because it is Memorial Day, there are trains tied down at South Denver on Mains 2 and 3, and trains tied down at the intermediate at Evans on Mains 2 and 3!

I try not to post too many roster shots, but there are certainly exceptions from time to time. BNSF 4000 is the "class unit" for the C44-9W's on the roster, and it is the lowest numbered C44-9W on BNSF's roster.

Deparing out of Denver Union Station right on time at 8:05am, Number 5 crosses over the diamond at 23rd Street. The train is coming up on the spring switch (currently, the track is aligned for the wye toward 31st Street) on the approach to Prospect Junction.

An elevated roster shot of BNSF 9380, a new SD70ACe delivered to BNSF in early April. This shot was taken from the Park Avenue West overpass just outside of Denver. Note that the SD70ACe has only two radiator fans, similar to the 38 and 39 series from the 1970's.

Leading a northbound coal empty on Main One, BNSF 9380 - a brand new SD70ACe - is about to cross over the Diamond that runs between Prospect Junction and Union Station. This northbound coal empty, with a fresh crew on board, would pass through the yard and head northeast on the Brush Sub.

Tied down in the Lodo Siding, BNSF 9397 waits patiently for a new crew to continue north. The building in the background was once known as the "Bum's Hotel", a place you wouldn't want to be late at night…now it has been refurbished into upscale lofts. Great place for watching trains!

Fresh out of the box, this SD70ACe came to BNSF from the EMD plant in London, Ontario less than a month ago. It was the lead unit on a northbound coal empty sitting in the Lodo Siding just south of BNSF's 31st Street yards.

Making a somewhat rare (but not unheard of) appearance in Denver, this MRL SD40XR (former BN SD40) heads for a yard track in Rennicks to pick up a sting of cars.
