About a mile out of Union Station, the westbound California Zephyr is about to pass over the apex of North Yard. The Denver skyline stands against the rather "blah" sky of the morning.

Yard Shots BNSF
One of only a handful of "Baby Tunnel Motors" (GP15-1's) on BNSF's roster hangs out near the house in Denver. BN brought 25 GP15-1's over to the BNSF roster, although many of those have now been sold off to Locomotive Leasing Partners (LLPX). Prior to being BN, this unit was actually a Frisco GP15-1, delivered as SLSF 103 in August 1977.

Yard Shots BNSF
The day before this image was taken, BNSF ran an inspection special down the Front Range Sub into Denver. After making a station stop at Union Station, the train used the passenger lead and was tied down here, near the house at 38th street. The train is only two cars long, and led by a single SD40-2.

That unit on the point kind of looks like a CEFX SD90MAC leaser, but in fact it is one of the dirtiest Warbonnet's I have ever seen. BNSF 8230, an SD75M, leads the northbound HDENLAU-24 through Westminster near 80th Avenue on its journey northward.

BNSF 8230 has just conquered the rather steep (albeit short) 2% grade in between Broomfield and Superior. The train will now descend down a 1.5% to 1.65% grade through Boulder and into Longmont.

With light fading quickly in the western sky, the eastbound Ski Train crosses 72nd Avenue in Arvada. The train is running right on time, coming up to an Advanced Approach (flashing yellow) signal at Kipling Street.
