A good looking Warbonnet SD75M idles in the distance while the UP Transfer heads from BNSF's 31st Street Yard back to UP's 36th Street Yard. At least once per day, UP comes to 31st Street from 36th Street to drop off and pick up interchange cars. Likewise, BNSF heads to North Yard from 31st Street to do the same.

Yard Shots BNSF
A very interesting trio of power sits on the ready track in Denver. BNSF 9150 is one of newest units (an SD70ACe) on BNSF's roster. The unit was delivered this year and has EMDs "Whisper Cab". BNSF 520 is a badly faded B40-8W. Lastly, BNSF 8175 is one of the only SD60M to actually receive a repaint (into the H2 scheme, in this case).

A GP40M (on the left) and an SD40-2 (on the right) sit just outside BNSF's Denver engine facility. Both units are equipped with the capability to be controlled remotely for yard work.

EMD 3 is currently one of 99 SD60's being leased to BNSF on a long term agreement. EMD 3 was involved in a collision at a grade crossing a few days earlier. Note that the plow is missing from the unit and there is some pretty good damage around and above the anti-climber!

Hostlers sit in EMDX 9028 waiting to take it and CEFX 6020 to their train in the yard. The two SD60s will provide the power for the HDENKCK-13. The train will depart south on the Joint Line and then turn east to head to Kansas City.

It seems that BNSF has been running more AC4400CW units on coal train these days. Case-in-point is this southbound coal load just getting ready to leave the yard in Denver and head for the Joint Line. They only have 111 such units on the roster, but they have spending a lot of time on PRB coal trains!

This shot pretty much sums up the weather for the day! There wasn't a lot of snowfall, but the wind was really bad and it blew snow around all over and on everything.

As my daughter would say, they are going to put BNSF 6393 "into the garage" for a little work! The 6393 is dead and BNSF 2928 is shoving it back.

I was hoping that I might see my first isolated-cab SD70ACe, but alas, this ACE came from one of the first runs for BNSF. The newer units have isolated cabs similar to the SD70MAC's from ten year ago. I have heard some crew members say that the cabs of the non-isolated SD70ACe's can be louder than SD40-2's!

One of only four SD60MACs ever created, the four units wore very unique paint schemes when they were delivered to Burlington Northern. Today, the units still wear (most of) their original paint. A few EMD logos have been added (as BN returned them to EMD). EMDX 9501 is sitting here at the House in Denver, waiting to head north toward Seattle.

Sitting outside of BNSF's house in Denver, this unit is one of only four like it ever built. When first developing AC traction motors, EMD used four SD60M's as prototypes, creating the only SD60MACs ever created. The units were delivered to Burlington Northern as BN 9500 to BN 9503. The units were ultimately returned to EMD and are typically found at the testing facility outside Pueblo. Here, EMDX 9501 is headed north toward the Seattle area for unknown reasons.

A very late-running Chicago to Denver (ZCHIDEN) navigates through 31st Street on the approach to the 23rd Street diamond. There, the train will make a right-hand turn and head north into Rennicks.

A fairly colorful collection of units on the BNSF ready tracks in town include a Warbonnet SD75I, an Oakway SD60 and a Ferromex ES44DC, along with the normal splattering of Heritage units.

I included this roster shot because this C44-9W recently received BNSF's New Image scheme. I happened to catch this same unit on the Joint Line in January 2006, and it was in the H2 scheme on that day. The unit was involved in a head-on collision (and completely destroyed) in June 2006 and was rebuilt in Mexico in June 2007.

How close is this to bing a shot from 10 or 20 years earlier!? A GP39E, a (very rare) GP10, and a GP38 work the "Salt Mine" yard job at BNSF's 31st Street Yard in Denver.
