In the distance, the HLAUDEN had to tie its train down at MP 16 because its crew died! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

And not just in the gondolas either. Now, I have nothing against BNSF...I have always appreciated that they try to match the colors of the unit they are patching when they apply a patch. But lately, they have been "scratching off" the BN herald from the nose of the SD70MACs. The nose of the unit looks was to plain now.

The HLAUDEN is about to leave the siding (to the right). The Longmont Turn is following the train into the siding with a Box 3 on its warrant. Meanwhile, the HDENLAU holds the main, waiting for the Longmont Turn to clear to it can continue north. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The dispatcher has informed the crew that they have a bit of wait, so the conductor has "gone for beans", meaning he will pick up a bit of lunch in town.

The PASSAG (Pasco, WA to Saginaw, TX) manifest is holding the main rather than the siding because there is another southbound coming out of Boulder, so there will be a three-way meet at Broomfield and the HDENLAU will hold the siding for both southbounds.
