Check out this string of classic EMD power sitting near the house. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

These work horses have spent the majority of their tenure in coal service and seem to have worked really well. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture. Photo ID: 104013 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, October 2, 2011 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed 31st Street Denver, CO 1467 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots BNSF I have been reading that BNSF has been getting rid of their GP30s (or, former/rebuilt GP30s, as the case may be). However, this former GP30 is looking pretty sharp in the New Image scheme. It is a GP30 in appearance only. It has in fact been rebuilt into a GP39-2M.

Internally, this is now an SD40-2...however, externally, it still looks exactly like the SD45-2 that it was built as over thirty years ago.

After all, Colorado isn't exactly CSX country... Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

This is a GP10 of Illinois Central vintage. More recently, this little unit has served as one of two units on the Hollis Eastern. A railroad in southwestern Oklahoma that has about 13 miles of track total. I don't know why 50% of their motive power was in Denver on this day.

October 2nd was no exception! An eastbound coal load departs East Portal with a scattered blanket of changing aspens covering the mountain behind.

Several trees have lost their leaves in the distance, indicating this weekend may well be the best for falls colors. Next weekend, far more trees may be leafless!
