An SD40-2 and a GP38-2 work to switch out a string of double stack cars at BNSF's intermodal facility at Rennicks. The long stretch of cars necessitates the job pulling north onto the BNSF Front Range Subdivision alongside RTDs Pecos Junction commuter line station. While the train is technically on the mainline, this part of the mainline is still within yard limits, so no coordination with BNSF's Front Range Dispatcher is necessary.

There is quite a bit of interest from both Amtrak and the State of Colorado in trying to get some state-sponsored Amtrak trains running along the Front Range from Ft Collins to Pueblo. In a very rare move, the Winter Park Express equipment was repurposed for one day to take several key dignitaries on a trip from Denver to Longmont on the Front Range Sub. Included on the train were Colorado Governor Jared Polis and Amtrak President Roger Harris, among others. AMTK 174, sporting Amtrak's newest (Phase VII) paint scheme, was brought in from Chicago specifically for the special. Here, the train crosses Clear Creek just north of Utah Junction.
