The day before, a spring blizzard dumped up to a foot of snow in parts of Denver. This SD60M hasn't quite been dug out just yet! In the distance, a pair of SD70Ms get ready to take two auto racks up to Rolla (UP's auto facility in Denver).

A remote-equipped GP15-1 and a GP38-2 work at switching out cars at UP's 36th Street Yard in Denver. At this point, the units are indeed being remotely controlled from someone on the ground.

I consider myself extremely lucky to have come across this consist! These days, finding a patched Espee unit is still fairly common. Two patched units in a consist is increasing rare. Finding three - particularly three without an other units - is just awesome. These units were on a coal empty heading for Energy, tied down in the siding at Sable.

A pair of leaser GP38-2s sit idling at Roydale on UP's Limon Sub. Nothing to switch at the moment, so these good looking blue units are just hanging out, letting the snow melt off of them.

A pair of GP38-2 leasers from Helm Leasing hang out near Roydale. These units are typically used on a local that works overnights in the area. Very clean-looking paint schemes.

Gotta love the plow-totally-covered-in-snow shot! A pair of ES44AC's lead up a coal load. Not long ago, this train would have almost certainly been led by a pair of SD70MACs.
