Just south of Blakeland, this coal load went into emergency with power issues and had to come to a stop. The dispatcher let the train know they could go retrieve a spare unit from Castle Rock or have a manifest behind them cut off their power. I had to leave before hearing what the final resolution was.

The overpass on Titan Road offered a great view of this southbound BNSF Denver-Pueblo manifest. Note the winterization hatches on the radiator fans on the leading SD40-2 and the SD60. Very common on Canadian Pacific units.

At Titan Road, the train carrying the hydrotreater is in the home stretch on its long journey! It has taken the train 19 days just to run from Houston to Denver. Not a simple operation by any stretch of the imagination!
