Even though Soo never ran in (or really anywhere near) Colorado, for some reason the paint scheme is very nostalgic for me. I do seem to recall having an HO model in the Soo scheme, so maybe that is why! Here, this former Soo SD60 is now a CEFX leaser. BNSF is utilizing its services to free up its own (more modern) power in road service.

A bright blue CEFX SD40-2 leaser idles away as the second of four units on the Beer Run. The train is sitting at Tennyson Street awaiting a fresh crew.

It had been quite some time since I last saw an SD60M prior to seeing BNSF 8167 on the Beer Run here. The units had been put in storage a few years earlier. However, with a huge increase in power demand, BNSF has reactivated them and put them to work! The paint on this particular SD60M looks pretty great, considering its age.

Since BNSF has been suffering from a bit of a power shortage lately, the result has been some very colorful power showing up in various places. The power on the Beer Run between Denver and Golden is no exception! A former Soo (now CEFX) SD60 leaser, a CEFX SD40-2 leaser, a BNSF SD60M, and a BNSF SD40-2 make for a great (orange-free) consist! The train is sitting near Tennyson Street, waiting for a recrew.

It is something of a gloomy day out as a cold front moves in to the Denver area. The front would produce a light dusting of snow overnight. In the meantime, an ES44DC and a C44-9W wait at a red signal at Tennyson Street. The train, with 14 boxcars loaded with Coors beer on the point, is waiting for maintenance at C&S Junction to clear up in order to continue east in to the yard.

Waiting for UP's dispatcher (DS-86) to get them a clear signal at C&S Junction, the "First Beer Run" sits shy of the grade crossing at Tennyson Street. I thought the power choice was particularly interesting...a year-old SD70ACe and a twenty-five year old SD40-2!

For the past decade or so, two units has been the standard on the Beer Run between Denver and Golden. However, on this particular Saturday afternoon, the train was being led by four units (the fourth of which was a former ATSF B30-7). There was no crew on board and, in fact, Tennyson street had been cut!

There are two "Beer Runs" each day for a total of four trains (two out of Golden, two into Golden). Today, the first beer run is holding west of Tennyson Street. The train is waiting for the MNYPH, which is about to leave C&S Jct. The hoppers to the right are sitting on the relatively new "Arvada Siding".

The "Beer Run", which runs between Denver and the Coors Factory in Golden, has some interesting power on it right now. First up is this GP60M, with a small "BNSF" patch on the nose.
