On a day that was almost entirely overcast, the sun breaks through near the end of the day as the Denver to Laurel manifest comes around on the main track at Broomfield.

Man, this train is so close to having three Warbonnets on the point, and yet so far away! 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.

I have always been a fan of Kansas City Southern. Probably because the railroad was very similar in size to the Rio Grande and yet it has survived and even grown into the 21st Century

A pair of BNSF C44-9Ws and a KCS AC4400CW make up the power on this days Denver to Laurel manifest. On this day, the train got a track warrant from Denver all the way to Boulder. This is rather rare as nearly every train has to at least stop in Broomfield to throw a switch!

Moving along the lower grade at Broomfield (the mainline), a northbound HDENLAU (Denver, CO to Laurel, MT) manifest makes its way toward Burns Junction.

After stopping at the north end of Broomfield, the conductor from the DENLAU has thrown the switch from the main to the siding. The train has a track warrant all the way to North Yard (in Fort Collins) and it is getting ready to roll in that direction!

A rare treat on this Denver to Laurel, MT freight as a Canadian National cowl SD60F joins the lead power. Internally, the unit is just an EMD SD60. However, there are no external walkways. You can walk alongside the prime mover inside the shell of the unit to get to the next unit. Canadian National has 86 such units on their roster.

Nearing the north end of Broomfield, BNSF's Denver to Laurel, MT manifest runs through the siding (on the left) while the Pasco, WA to Saginaw, TX manifest hold the main on the right. Note the lead unit on the DENLAU seems to be missing some decals from its nose!

At Burns Junction (the north end of the Broomfield Siding), sitting on the Lafayette Industrial Lead, was a B40-8 wearing a very nice Heritage I paint scheme. I'm not sure why the unit was there as power for the Buck Local typically comes from Longmont. In the distance, you can see the HPASSAG siting on the mainline waiting for a northbound.

The last bit of sunlight from the day shines off the top of Longs Peak - one of the 50+ mountain peaks over 14,000 feet in Colorado. The light power has a warrant all the way into town.
