One of the few H2 ES44DC leads up the northbound HDENLAU as the train enters the siding at Broomfield. In track warrant territory, all blocks (typically sidings) will have a sign indicating the location.

The siding at Broomfield was originally a part of the CB&Q while the main was part of the C&S. Once it all fell under one railroad (and more and more streets starting popping up in Broomfield), the alignment of the siding became a bit less straight! Here, the northbound HDENLAU is headed north toward Nickel Street while the southbound HPASSAG holds on the main.

A 7000-foot Pasco, WA to Saginaw, TX manifest just received a warrant from the Front Range dispatcher and is now pulling toward the south switch at Broomfield after meeting a northbound Denver, CO to Laurel, MT freight (still visible in the distance).

Lots of new development (within the last 5-15 years) in the background of this shot. The northbound HDENLAU approaches a new "ant hill" (behind the photographer) which has sprung up in the last two years. It was nice to see an Oakway SD60 - EMD 9070 - helping pull with the northbound.

Power from the 21st Century (an ES44DC) leads up power from the 90's (a C44-9W) followed by some classic power from the 80's (an SD60), all running elephant style on the HDENLAU-02. Upon arriving at Longs Peak (just north of Longmont), the train will tie down due to maintenance further north on the line.
