The Beer Run is temporarily stopped to make sure switches are aligned to allow the train to continue in to the lower yard at Coors. The Brewery is located in between North and South Table Mountains along Clear Creek.

BNSF 1826 has a very interesting patch job. Not exactly sure what the history is behind this patch. BNSF is, in generally, very good at patching the paint color of the location the patch is applied when it is applied. This SD40-2 will be used on the Golden Switch in the coming week(s).

BNSF's Beer Run is descending a fill down from the Golden Sub in to the lower yard at Coors. A pair of SD70s (an SD70ACe and an SD70MAC) lead a pair of SD40-2s and the train. The SD40-2s will be power for the Golden Switch, a local that runs east out of Golden.

The BNSF Beer Run has pulled all the way through track 3 in the yard. It is going to need to double over the front half of the train on track 4. West 37th Drive runs through the middle of the Coors compound, seen here alongside the train. Clear Creek is on the opposite side of the train.

One of the most reliable, well-built units in history is, without question, EMD SD40-2. Nearly 50 years after its original build date, BNSF 1660 is still in service and working daily. Running a local may not be as prestigious as train it once ran, but it is great so many of this classic EMD units are still on the rails.

BNSF 2949 is a GP39-2 that has undergone a bit of modifications, particularly around the cab! The number boards above the cab have been brought forward and an air conditioner, among other things, has been added to the roof.

A well-blocked Beer Run enters yard track 3 in the lower (south) yard at Coors on a Sunday afternoon. The reference to the train being "well-blocked" means that there are groups of cars meant to be together and will likely remain together for their duration here at Coors. Today's train also has a pair of spartan cab unit that will be used on the Golden local for the next week. The local runs east out of the upper yard Monday through Friday.
