Due to floods in the midwest, the Front Range Sub has seen a fair amount of rerouted traffic this summer. Such was the case on this Thursday afternoon as an empty BNSF northbound enters the siding at Broomfield. The train is meeting a southbound...but the train won't fit west of Nickel Street, so the crossing will have to be cut.

It is nearing 1 o'clock in the afternoon and the HDENLAU is on the approach to the south siding switch of Broomfield. There, it will take the siding to meet its counterpart, the HLAUDEN.

A standard cab GE unit straight out of the 1980's! GE's C40-8 competed with EMD's SD60s about 25 years ago. Here, a CSX-painted C40-8 helps out the HLAUDEN as it prepares to depart the Broomfield siding south toward Denver.

On the siding at Broomfield, the crew of this HLAUDEN (Laurel, MT to Denver, CO) is working to reassemble the train. The train is over 7,000 feet long and does not fit in the siding at Broomfield without cutting Nickel Street. Now that both trains it was meeting have passed, its time to rebuild and head to town.

Not far from the east switch of Broomfield, a southbound manifest holds in the siding for a couple northbounds coming out of Denver. The southbound is long enough that the crew has had to cut the grade crossing at Nickel Street. Note the standard cab CSX C40-8 in the lineup!

The HLAUDEN had some colorful power on this particular day. The second unit has to be just about the cleanest H2 units on the roster! It is one of the few SD75Ms on BNSFs roster to lose its Warbonnet scheme in favor on the Heritage 2 scheme. Meanwhile, it looks like that CSX C40-8W has seen better days!

Just south of Broomfield, this southbound HLAUDEN is finally on the roll again after waiting for nearly an hour at Broomfield for the HDENLAU to get out of town and into the clear in the siding.

After meeting the HDENLAU-27 at Broomfield, the HPASSAG-24 got a warrant from the north siding switch at Broomfield to the restricted limits at Clear Creek. With the switch at the south end of Broomfield restored to normal position, the train is picking up speed now as it heads towards town. A gibbous moon looks down on the train as it approaches 112th Avenue.

The HDENLAU has a very colorful consist for the day as it approaches the south siding switch of Broomfield. At Broomfield, the train will clear up in the siding to meet the southbound QPASSAG, which was between Boulder and Broomfield.
