I shot the train a few hours earlier preparing its train for departure from the yard. Here, the train has a track warrant all the way to Longs Peak, so it won't be making a stop anytime soon!

It was a high ISO (800) and hence a bit grainy. I actually really like the way it turned out in black and white. The train approaching is the HPASSAG (Pasco, WA to Saginaw, TX) about a mile and a half north of the Westminster Mall. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The daily Denver to Laurel manifest has a C40-8W on the point followed by a pair of SD75Ms. Not long ago, both of those SD75Ms were wearing a Warbonnet scheme. The DENLAU just met the PASSAG (Pasco, WA to Saginaw, TX) at Broomfield and is now proceeding north at dusk. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The first official paint scheme for BNSF after the 1995 merger was the Heritage scheme (now called the Heritage 1, or H1 scheme). You know, in a lot of ways, I think these railfans might just know what they are talking about! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
