The entire track layout throughout Longmont is likely one of the reasons BNSF runs as few trains as they do on the Front Range Sub. There are dozens of grade crossing, lots of switches, and tight curves. Trains have to move very slowly through here. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

With the train nearing the north end of the street, it can increase its speed a bit. It would be pretty fascinating to live on Atwood Street. Most of the time, a relatively quiet residential street. But, every once in awhile, an iron giant comes rolling down the middle! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

BNSF's Front Range Sub runs right down the middle of the street! This is a residential street that is lined with houses and a park. Several times a day, the silence in the neighborhood is shattered by the sound of a train, such as this one, running down the middle of the street.

If you are looking at this picture in 2025, then this is most likely a common site. However, here in 2015, this was the first production version of this model I saw in person. BNSF took delivery of roughly 100 units in 2015. The unit is Tier 4 compliant and, like the ES44C4, it is an A1A-A1A unit.

Longmont residents that live on Atwood Street get exactly that. A northbound manifest proceeds down the median, offering a fair amount of horn when approaching each cross street.

In addition to the lack of signals, there are multiple stretches of track that have reduced speeds. Atwood Street in Longmont is one of those. The track run down the median of the street, which one direction running on either side. Here, a local heads south down said median.

The power is entirely B40-8s, with two being the wide cab variety. The train just finished switching in Loveland and, after switching a little bit more in Longmont, the train will tie up.

They are perfect circles at the base. Once attached, the blades will spin at 10-20 revolutions per minute. That can equate to over 200 MPH at the tips. Imagine that centripetal force!
