This train just came in off the Brush Sub with a pair of GP39Ms (rebuilt from GP35s) and a pair of CSX AC4400CWs. The cars were dropped in the yard and the power is now headed for the House for fuel.

They were moved in to the 159 number range in order to make room for new power. This new number range puts the GP60s adjacent to the (originally Warbonnet) GP60Ms. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

This includes a blue SD60 leasor, a blue and yellow GP60 (recently renumbered to 166 to make room for newer power in the roster), and a cascade green SD40-2.

BNSF usually does a pretty good job of patching units to match their present paint scheme. A bit of an exception would be the "1448" patch, seemingly done quite hastily here (in black) on the cab of this SD60M. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

A GP20 for the South Plains Lamesa Railroad sits near BNSF's Engine House, waiting to head south on the Joint Line and be returned to its home. The unit spent most of its life in Santa Fe yellow and blue before being sold around 2000 to the short line. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture. Photo ID: 105173 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, May 3, 2015 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed BNSF Engine House Denver, CO 1602 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots SLAL This power will likely be on the point of a southbound train on the Joint Line within the next day or so. The GP20 is owned by South Plains Lamesa Railroad. This is a shortline with four GP20s, a GP20u, a CF7, and a pair of GP9s, located in Slaton, TX, southeast of Lubbock, TX. The unit is being returned to the SLAL after receiving a fresh paint job. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

This ex-ATSF GP20 is now owned by the South Plains Lamesa Railroad in Texas. While it has been on the roster for over a decade, it was just recently repainted in the scheme seen here.

Photo ID: 105171 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, May 3, 2015 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed BNSF Engine House Denver, CO 1357 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots BNSF Nothing too special here. Just a sharp looking ES44AC that seemed to merit a nice roster shot. While I love action shots, I also enjoy collected roster shots of an many units as I can. 30 years from now, this will be a classic shot of a unit that likely will either have been retired, or is being used on locals and in switching!

Photo ID: 105034 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, March 1, 2015 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed BNSF Engine House Denver, CO 1563 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots CSX I realize this is the third picture showing these CSX units sitting in BNSF's yard. The reason I wanted to add this one is I found the (former) SOO unit in the background an interesting addition. CSX and SOO, two railroads that don't (or didn't) operate anywhere near Colorado, both represented in this single shot in Denver!

In some instances, the change had to be done rather hastily! Such is the case with the B40-8, formerly in the 8600-series. Some quick number boards and an interesting red and white patch on the cab moved this unit in to the 500-series. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

This shot does a nice job of comparing and contrasting CSX's older "Gray" scheme (on the C40-8) with their newer "Dark Future" scheme (on the ex-Conrail SD60I).

Photo ID: 105031 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, March 1, 2015 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed BNSF Engine House Arvada, CO 1644 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots BNSF Has there ever been (or will there ever be) an engine as amazing as the SD40-2? With very few exceptions, every railroad in the United States, Canada, and Mexico owned at least a few SD40-2s. And now, 40 years later, railroads are still rebuilding them and keeping them on the roster. Granted they are used for switching and local work more often than in mainline service now, but it still cool to see them on the rail. How much longer will that last?

CSX units don't show up in Denver all that often...and when they do, the typically are not standard cab GE units. However, on this snowy March 1st, a CSX C40-8 was among the BNSF units near BNSF's engine house in Denver. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
