A trio of EMD geeps, on lease to Union Pacific, sit waiting for their next assignment in Denver's 36th Street Yard. In a world presently dominated by UP Armour Yellow and BNSF Orange, seeing maroon, white and blue makes for a nice break!

Not a lot going on around UP's 36th Street Yard on this Sunday afternoon! A pair of GP15-1's (complete with Remote Control) sit nose to nose waiting for switching duties. Local power sits off to the left and two AC4400CWs sit ready for their next assignment on the right.

The day before, a spring blizzard dumped up to a foot of snow in parts of Denver. This SD60M hasn't quite been dug out just yet! In the distance, a pair of SD70Ms get ready to take two auto racks up to Rolla (UP's auto facility in Denver).

The units on the right are frequently used to transfer cars between 36th Street and North Yard. The units on the left, on the other hand, switch cars at 36th Street.

Now here are some good old fashioned EMD work-horses! A GP15-1 and a GP38-2 work to switch cars for the MDVGR (Denver, CO to Green River, WY) which would depart later in the day. These units are particularly good in yard service as they are not equipped with dynamic brakes. This makes them less useful as road power over much of UP's system.

A "triclops" SD60M idles away in the yard at 36th Street. This power was brand new in the 1980's ... these days, you can still find this power on the mainline. In fact, this particular unit went east of the Limon Sub to Salina, KS later in the day. Oh, and that fantastic looking SD40-2 is looking pretty dang good too!

UP's Denver, CO to Salina, KS manifest is all set to depart Denver. The only thing it is missing is a track warrant! A coal empty is coming in off the Limon Sub and the manifest here has to wait (in spectacular light that only lasted another 90 seconds).

Just in case you wake up one morning and you are not sure what city you are in, you can always check to see if you can see the Quest Building. If you can, you're in Denver! Power for the Denver to Green River (WY) train sits waiting for a crew...and a train!
