An SD70ACe and a AC4400CW lead up a loaded coal train approaching Titan Road just south of Littleton. The train has 120 hoppers and four units for power. This is pretty typical for BNSF and the train won't make much better than 15 MPH for its trip up the Palmer Divide.

BNSF has a handful of blue CEFX AC4400CW leasers on the system. They seem to run primarily between the Powder River Basin and Texas. Which means we see a lot of them on the Joint Line in Colorado!

Just south of Chatfield Reservoir is Acequia. The tracks diverge from US-85 along here, but the High Line Canal Trail follows the tracks, offering shots like this one. This southbound coal load has just started on the double track portion of the Joint Line and is in Run 8 for the trip to Palmer Lake.
