The new bridge over Clear Creek has been completed at C&S Junction. However, rails have not yet been laid over the bridge. Stacks of ties are around, some of which have been laid, but the rail hasn't shown up quite yet.

Looking east at Lowell Street, all signs of the BNSF Golden Sub have all but vanished. UP will be adding a second track here soon. Once the second track is in, the BNSF tracks will no doubt be hooked back up. The question now is exactly where will the BNSF tie back in.

The bases for a new bridge over Clear Creek have been put in place. There is obviously still quite a bit of work left to do in order to complete the bridge (adding a second track across the creek), but signs along the bike path beneath the bridge indicate it should be complete by August.

Looking east at C&S Junction, you can see where a new bridge will soon appear to take a second track across Clear Creek. This new track will extend west at least to Lamar Street, and possibly further west.

The switch to nowhere! BNSF's Golden Sub has been severed from the UP at C&S Junction. UP is working on extending a second track west of C&S. Soon, this switch will be part of a crossover between the existing main and the new, second main.

The BNSF Golden Sub (which the Beer Train uses to reach Golden) is missing at C&S Junction! This is part of a new project UP has to extend a second train west of C&S Junction.
