Burlington Northern applied a unique paint scheme to their fleet of GP50s, adding a large BN herald and the name "Burlington Northern" to the long hood. That scheme is still very apparent on BNSF 3147 in this shot. The GP50 along with GP39V (rebuilt from a GP35) head south toward the Lafayette branch in Broomfield.

2011 or 1991? If it wasn't for the badly faded paint and the clear "BNSF" on the cabs, it might not be quite so easy to answer that question! An interesting pair of Cascade Green geeps (a GP39V and a GP50) head south passed the Valmont Power Plant with six cars on the Longmont Turn.

A BNSF Officer's Special was called out of Cheyenne early Thursday morning for a trip down the Front Range Sub. Just after noon, the train was passing by the Valmont Power Plant in Boulder.

The trains destination is finally in sight! The Xcel Energy owned power plant at Valmont is coal fired. The hoppers will be spotted near the plant, and a switcher at the plant will position the hoppers to be dumped over the next several days.

It is a beautiful fall morning along the Valmont Reservoir in Boulder as the southbound HLAUDEN passes by. The Colorado high country saw as much as two feet of snow the previous weekend, and it shows on the peaks in the background.
