BNSF's westbound Beer Run descends the grade toward the upper yard at Coors in Golden. The train is paralleling Farmer's Highline Canal. This canal branches off from Clear Creek not far behind the camera and runs all through Golden, Arvada, and Westminster. It actually crosses underneath UP's Moffat Tunnel Sub just east of Simms Street!

BNSF's Sunday afternoon Beer Run runs alongside West 44th Avenue in Golden. The train has a pair of SD40-2s that will serve as the Golden Switch power for the upcoming week. The train is headed for the upper yard at Coors. This yard primarily contains cars for industries other than Coors along the branch that the Golden Switch will switch out in the coming week.

I remember, as a kid, seeing SDP40s on the Beer Run that ran between Denver and Golden. Burlington Northern had six SDP40s that it inherited from Great Northern, and they seemed to spend a lot of time in Denver. Fast-forward about forty years, and an SD70ACe and an SD70MAC are the power on the train on this December afternoon, just minutes after sunset.
