One of Kansas City Southern's new Retro-Belle units led a train over the Moffat. BNSF's Stockton to Denver (QSTDVJ) had KCS 4116 as the leader, as seen here coming into the siding at Rocky. The train would stop to meet the Rocky Local before continuing east. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The grade increases through here and a bit more power is needed to get the (rather long) local up to Rocky. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

It is based on an old scheme KCS used in the 1950s called the Southern Belle. Here, KCS 4116 is being leased by BNSF and is leading the Stockton to Denver manifest down the Front Range, over the Moffat.

There, the train will meet a few westbounds before heading into town. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

UP's DS-86 put it in the hole at Leyden because BNSF's 31st Street Yard doesn't have room for the train yet. A sharp-looking Kansas City Southern Retro-Belle leads the train.

And, interestingly, four of the five units models are unique and each of the five units is wearing a different paint scheme! First up is an SD70ACe in KCS Retro-Belle paint. Next is an AC4400CW in KCS Gray pint. Third is a typical BNSF Dash-9 in Heritage II. Fourth is a beat up Warbonnet C40-8W. Last but not least is a very new SD70ACe in the New Image scheme.
