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).

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!

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!

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.
