The Longmont Turn has some very new power - three ES44AC's - for switching today. The Turn just finished positioning some Valmont hoppers along the Stazio baseball field complex. Now, the crew is hooking back up to the rest of the train on the mainline.

With its train secure off the mainline, the light power for the Longmont Turn comes out onto the mainline, the brakeman standing on the ground protecting the switch.

After securing its train in the clear, the Longmont Turn is about to proceed north (geographically west) to the Boulder siding where it will clear up for a southbound that is currently leaving Longmont. Afterward, the light power will return to Longmont for the day.
