This is an area that has changed significantly in the past few years. Among other things, RTD's N-Line from Denver Union Station to Thornton, CO has been completed, as seen on the right side of the frame.

Multiple seconds were in a row along the passenger lead. Meanwhile, hostlers work to re-position BNSF 5603. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

When business has slowed and there has been a surplus of power, the SD60Ms have been put in storage. With the recent boom in oil, virtually all stored power has been put back on the active roster. Here, a pair of SD60Ms (recently patched in to the 1400-series) is moved toward the engine house by some yard hostlers. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

My daughter Bella seems to be getting more interested in photography. Here, she is borrowing my Canon Digital Rebel XT to nab a shot of some light power in BNSF's yard.

Photo ID: 104902 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, December 14, 2014 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed 31st Street Yard Denver, CO 1511 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots BNSF The ES44C4 has become extremely popular on BNSF. In the last three years, nearly 1,000 of these units has appeared on BNSF property! The unit is different from an ES44AC in that it only has four traction motors. The center axles on both trucks are not powered, giving this unit an A1A-A1A configuration rather than a C-C configuration. This results in a unit similar to a four-axle unit, but with the weight distributed over six axles. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

However, the day will come when these units can only be found in museums and the next generation of railfans will long for the day when such a shot was possible!

With the recent need for power, Class 1 railroads seem to be sharing more power among themselves. This SD75I is one of 172 such units on Canadian National's roster.

Hostlers were moving three units, which included this Warbonnet SD75I, from the yard to the engine house. When BNSF reactivated their SD75Ms and SD75Is, they also renumbered them in order to make room for new delivers. The new numbers actually reflect the original numbers when the units were delivered to Santa Fe. In the case above, BNSF 282.

Rather than getting the typical patch on the cab, "Santa Fe" on the long hood was painted over with this not-so-standard patch (in a not-so-standard font).

The train is pulling out of track 31 in BNSF's yard, preparing to double over to track 32 before departing toward the Golden Sub. Note the winterization hatch covering the radiator fan furthest forward. This was a common feature on SOO units. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
