Just east of UP Junction, a string of cars sits on Denver and Rock Island track, waiting to transfer over to Union Pacific. Included in the string of cars is an old dome car that has sat in Denver for decades. Its final destination was not known when this shot was taken. It was only know that it was initially headed to North Platte, NE.

Four units on BNSF's Beer Run are representing three different paint schemes. The SD70ACe is, of course, sporting the New Image scheme. SD70MAC 9709 has the short-lived "green and cream" scheme. The two SD40-2s that will run on the Golden Local are also on the train, one with a New Image and one with the original Heritage scheme. The train is crossing over Clear Creek at C&S Junction.

As you can clearly see, UP 7051 clearly encountered its snow somewhere on the way east between Grand Junction and Denver. Here, at C&S Junction, the manifest is leaving Main 2 (which becomes Main 3 here at C&S) and is entering the west end of the North Yard Siding.

A smattering of five GEs lead a westbound unit oil train, sitting on Bypass 2 at C&S Junction. Two of the units have quite faded paint schemes, while the number boards on UP 6777 are virtually impossible to read.

UP 6777 is on the point of a westbound empty oil train, stopped on Bypass 2 at C&S Junction. there is a crew onboard the train, but for reasons not clear, it is not heading west. What's more, it would actually be several hours before it finally did head west.

An overview of the Burnham property from the north side. You can see that a lot of rail used to run through the property, but evidence of them is disappearing as weeds overtake what is left on the property. Rumor has it that CDOT (the Colorado Department of Transportation) has purchased the property. For exactly what reason, it is not clear.

From the northeast side of Building #3, the fire damage does not look quite as severe, save for the clearly charred black roof that no longer really exists.

From the north side of Burnham, we look south and see a few refuel pads that were once used, with their concrete bases. The rails have all long since been removed, and mother nature is trying to reclaim the property.

You can pretty obviously tell which parts of Building #3 were built out of brick and/or concrete, and which parts were build out of wood. The roof of the main part of the building is gone, and most of the walls (and roof) of the secondary part of the building are also gone.

From the south side of Building #4 and Building #3, we look north. You can see the top of Building #3, clearly burned out from the fire in the summer of 2021. And, as is the case throughout Burnham, graffiti is absolutely everywhere.

A look at the shops on the north side of Burnham. Burned down Building #3 is visible near the top of the frame. You can see where some tracks used to run, but all have since been pulled up. There are still two tracks (not used by Light Rail) on the top-right of the frame. UP uses these to access a few customers still in the area.
