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.

Not only does the spartan cab of the Tunnel Motor look fantastic, but see the Rio Grande fly letters to the right on a steam tender and to the left on GP30 DRGW 3011 is just great!
