A site that you don't exactly see on a daily basis! BNSF's HKCKDEN (Kansas City - Denver) picked up an Amtrak California F59PH from the testing center outside Pueblo. This F59 came east from California on the Zephyr last September.

A rare shot of the back end of an F59PH! This unit came up the Joint Line earlier in the day. It is currently being placed at the House while waiting to depart.

This is the engine that was beat out by General Electric's P42DC to replace the F40PH. Amtrak received several of these units for use (as the name implies) in California. It is a rare find to find one of these outside that west coast state.

Two DPU units on the tail end of a southbound coal load push hard on Main Two. Meanwhile, the Salt Mine switch job pulls on a string of cars on the right side of the shot.

Ten miles away from Union Station and this Saturday version of the Ski Train is running right on time on its journey home. This shot was taken at Kipling Parkway, just west of the intermediate signal at MP 9.8.

The eastbound Ski Train passes the (Rio Grande style) intermediate signal at MP 9.8 as it moves east at track speed. The crossing in the foreground is for Kipling Parkway.
