In the last six months, hundreds of SD40-2s (along with other, older power) has been placed in storage on all Class 1 railroads. So it was a treat to find a pair of them working on the Salt Mine switch job.

20 years ago, taking a picture from this spot would have yielded a sea of green Burlington Northern units. Makes you wonder what it will look like in another 20 years!

I can't help but post a shot like this that shows two units, both of which are wearing now-outdated paint scheme! BNSF 652 has some rapidly-fading Warbonnet paint and BNSF 965 which is in sporting the original Heritage scheme.

After arriving off the Greeley Sub, UP's ZLADV backs down toward the ramp in Denver so the containers and trailers can be offloaded. A pair of ES44ACs (or C45ACCTEs, as UP designates them) and an SD70M back into the shadows of a condo complex in the late evening sun.

UP's ZLADV has arrived in Denver around 7:00pm on this pleasant Sunday evening. The power is stopped on the bridge over Broadway, with Coors Field in the distance. 20 years ago, Broadway was an overpass at this location, running over UP's old yard.

Belt Industrial Lead (UP) Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey
It is a beautiful morning as the Ringling Brothers "Red Train" rolls through Denver. The circus was just in Colorado Springs (ending the night before) and the train is passing through Denver on its way to Las Vegas, NV. It will be back in Denver at the end of September and beginning of October, when the circus is actually in town.

Finally! After several years, I finally got the chance to shoot Ringling Brothers mile-long circus train. This is the "Red Train", one of two trains the circus operates. The other one being the "Blue Train". This train tends to do more shows west of the Mississippi and the Blue Train is usually east of the Mississippi. The circus hauls all of its own equipment, so everything for the shows is kept in these containers!

It is barely 8 o'clock on a fantastic June morning as a yard crew bring out a pair of units that will be used to switch cars at North Yard.

After departing Union Station right on time at 8:10pm, the eastbound Zephyr passes by a rather large puddle of water along the Passenger Lead. This is a great time of year to get pictures as the sun is still up long enough to get some shots of Amtrak 6 as it departs eastbound.

Alright, this is what I'm talking about! Three passenger trains at Union Station. Well...not quite. The P42 on the far left side of the picture is sitting alone on a stub track. It is used as a backup unit, should it be needed. The focus of the picture is the eastbound California Zephyr. On the right side of the picture is Disney's A Christmas Carol Tour Train, preparing to depart for Salt Lake City.

From the northeast end of Union Station, Disney's A Christmas Carol Tour Train can be seen sitting on Track 5. The train spent three days in Denver and is prepping to leave for Salt Lake City to continue its tour.

After three very full days of visitors, Disney's Tour Train for the new movie A Christmas Carol (coming out in November 2009) is packing up its equipment. A few hours later (after dark, as luck would have it), the train departed for Salt Lake City, UT.

A roster shot of AMTK 71, one of the two P42s being used on Disney's A Christmas Carol Tour Train. Unfortunately, there was no way for me to get any closer to the train than this, so the fences protecting the Light Rail tracks are unfortunately in the way.
