Longs Peak scrapes the base of the clouds as the train approaches the north switch of Broomfield. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

And now down again on the Front Range Sub, through Denver, down the Joint Line and back out to Topeka. A quick 4-day run around the block!

A snow/sleet/rain mix gave way to sunny skies over a short period of time. Minute ago, this northbound PRB coal train reroute was rolling through blowing snow. In the distance on the left, note the caboose and the half dozen cars lined up at Burns Junction, read to go to their industries in Lafayette.

The green and cream SD70MAC's have been losing their "BN" or old "BNSF" heralds from their nose at a record pace. Case-in-point is SD70MAC #9584. The rather dirty unit has a very clean nose as the old herald had been removed. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The crew on the HLAUDEN died here at MP 16, tied the train down, and was picked up by a crew van. However, somebody forgot to flip the lights off before leaving!

The train will hold the main track at Broomfield to wait for the QDENTAC to take the siding at Broomfield. Note that the second and third units are both in the Warbonnet scheme. The peak in the background is Longs Peak. Also, the buildings in the background are a part of the StorageTek facility. The campus was recently purchased and will be rebuilt in the next three or four years. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture. Photo ID: 101801 Date Shot Photo By Thursday, December 13, 2007 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed MP 16 Broomfield, CO 1989 (1 Comment Posted) Subdivision Railroad Front Range (BNSF) BNSF Almost every rail line has its share of "normal" trains; trains that are regularly (or semi-regularly) scheduled to run on the line. However, every once in a while, you'll catch a reroute or an unscheduled extra train. Such was the case here with BNSF's V-HYDDEN3-09A. This was a Vehicle Train running from Hauser Yard, ID to Denver, CO. The train - comprised of more double stacks than auto racks - was holding short of MP 16, waiting for instructions from Rennicks Yard on where to go!

Milepost 16 on the Front Range Subdivision is about a half mile north of Broomfield, and right at Brainard Drive. The HLAUDEN-25 is stopped short of the grade crossing until they can get a warrant down in between switches at Broomfield. Longs Peak stands tall in the morning light in the background (to the right). Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Clouds obscure the mountains as an empty tie train slowly approaches (at 10 MPH) the north siding switch of Broomfield. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The train encountered a bit of a delay at Broomfield. First, the train had to cut the Nickel Street crossing, then it had to wait for two southbounds, then it had to put its train back together, and finally, it had to contact mechanical to solve an alarm issue on its DPU!
