This BNSF Jordan Spreader - which is typically kept in Clovis, NM - visited Denver for a short time after a Spring Blizzard dumped up to two feet of snow in places along the Rockies.

More and more I'm taking the time to shoot (and post) roster shots of classic EMD power. Month after month, more and more SD40-2s are being put into storage if not being retired altogether. This SD40-2 is working the Salt Mine switch job at the Denver yards.

Warbonnets anyone? The Beer Run is currently being powered by a pair of (great-looking) SD75Is. I have been wanting to catch them and was glad they showed up at the yard while I was there on this day.

At the north end of the Joint Line, two units bring a rotary plow into Denver. The plow is based in Alliance, NE, but was moved down to Pueblo in case it was needed after a major Spring blizzard. My understanding is that its services were not ultimately needed.

A baretable train consisting entirely of TOFC flat cars heads south out of Rennicks Yard and starts its journey on the Joint Line. The train is headed for Oklahoma City, OK, where the cars will presumably be placed in storage.

Laramie (UP) Union Pacific, Chicago North Western
Each Winter, UP stores is passenger cars in Oakland, CA. Each Spring, the cars are moved to their summer base in Council Bluffs, IA. This year, the 20 car train had the CNW Heritage Unit (UP 1995) on the point as it made its journey. Here, the train is just outside Cheyenne where it will receive a crew change.

UP's passenger special - moving their business cars from Oakland, CA back to Council Bluffs, IA - heads east through the S-Curves on Main Two at Archer. UP 1995 was just an added bonus on this great looking train.

The HLAUDEN makes its way down the center of Atwood Street in Longmont on an otherwise quiet Sunday evening. The power on the train is a quartet of Dash-9s running elephant style.
