Time for a break! The Valmont coal train is going to be dropping off its cars at the power plant and siding in Boulder. As a result, the Tacoma-Denver freight will be stopped at 63rd Street for about two hours to wait for the work to be completed.

Northbounds are always hard to shoot on the Front Range Sub, but that problems tends to get worse in the winter months when the sun is further to the south. The sun is almost directly behind this Valmont empty as it makes its way north past 63rd Street along the Diagonal.

I can't stand it when railroads put helper units on the wrong way! True, it is completely irrelevant as far as the operation of the train goes, but I'd prefer to see a cab and not the tail end of a unit as the train is leaving me! Regardless, a single C44-9W helps push on the back of the HLAUDEN as it approaches Boulder with the Flatirons in the background.

The southbound HLAUDEN makes an early run south on the Front Range Sub. The train, just a bit south of 63rd Avenue in northern Boulder, will slow down drastically when it runs through the main parts of Boulder.
