Photo ID: 102093 Date Shot Photo By Saturday, May 24, 2008 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed 38th Street Denver, CO 1572 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots BNSF, NS I thought this was an interesting trio of units sitting near BNSF's House. A Norfolk Southern "Catfish" (a name given to NS C44-9Ws by railfans) is sandwiched by two Warbonnets. Unfortunately, the second Warbonnet was blocked by additional power and I couldn't include any more of the unit. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Of the 279 AC4400CWs that Espee had, only 15 were left unpatched as of this photo! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Along 69th Avenue, at the location known as "Adams Hold" (for the hold signal found on the Greeley Sub here), the northbound MNYNP-24 is rolling on a clear signal, Denver's unique "Cash Register" building clearly visible in the background.

Note the nine flat cars carrying tanks. I was guessing they might be headed for Fort Carson, but I'm not sure. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Meanwhile, a UP ballast train (symboled WDVDVB-23) sits tied down on the Rocky Flats Industrial Lead. The ballast train has been dropping new ballast along the main. In fact, a bit of new ballast is barely visible along the rails at the base of the hoppers. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
