Light power came north out of Denver to Boulder to pick up a train that had been tied down on the siding. While the conductor is knocking off the hand brakes, the engineers prepares for the trip north. The lead unit (an ES44DC) sits almost on top of the north siding switch of Boulder.

The forecasters were correct regarding the cold front they said would be moving in! Clouds obscure the mountains as an empty tie train slowly approaches (at 10 MPH) the north siding switch of Broomfield.

The sun tries hard to break through the cloud cover along the front range. Meanwhile, an empty southbound tie train meets a northbound manifest (which just happens to have some loaded ties) at Broomfield.

Empty ties meet loaded ties! The railroad can't be too happy about either though as neither train makes the railroad any money! The empty train is on the main at Broomfield while the loaded train is on the siding.
