Photo ID: 104039 Date Shot Photo By Tuesday, November 29, 2011 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed North Yard Denver, CO 2028 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots Union Pacific At first glance, it might seem as though there is nothing unusual in this shot. Just a group of units hanging out at the ready tracks in North Yard. However, upon closer inspection, note the unit on the left side of the shot. That is a former Espee GP40P-2. The steam generator has of course long since been removed, but the extended long hood and the angled radiators remain. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

So it was really great seeing a matched pair of Belle's on a military special in Denver. As it turns out, this is the first ES44 Retro-Belle that I've seen!

Photo ID: 104036 Date Shot Photo By Tuesday, November 29, 2011 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed North Yard Denver, CO 2281 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots Union Pacific, Kansas City Southern A Military Special came into Denver off the Limon Sub overnight. It crossed the Belt Main and entered the Main Track at CP DS002. After pulling down to Fox Junction, the crew on the train was ready to depart south on the Joint Line for Fort Carson. But BNSF wasn't ready for the train! With Amtrak coming, the train had to make a reverse move to get in the clear in the North Yard Siding. That worked out well for me as I got a shot of it backing down the main. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
