The train lost nearly three hours before leaving Illinois, and then continued to lose ground on the way to Denver. It is now a little over six hours late as it heads west on Main 2 between C&S Junction and Arvada. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Perhaps this is the symptom of the problem that resulted in this BNSF ES44DC being added to the point for the journey west.

Guessing a failure in one of the P42DCs was a contributing factor to the delay as a BNSF ES44DC has been added to the point. The train is on Main 3, passing empty Bypass tracks and an empty North Yard Siding. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The units were built by Siemens and are headed for Pennsylvania. RTD's "A Line", which runs from Union Station to Denver International Airport, follows UP's Limon Sub for much of the run. Here, just west of Airport Blvd, the A-Line ascends and crosses over the Limon Sub. If only a commuter train has passed over right at this moment!
