BNSF's "stinky slinky" (molten sulfur train), which typically runs on the Front Range Sub, is detouring over UP's Greeley Sub. The Front Range Sub is still out of service after severe flood damage a week earlier. In the distance, UP's switches auto racks at the Rolla auto facility.

BNSF trains doing this on UP's Greeley Sub are unusual! Due to the closure of the Front Range Sub after flooding a week earlier, the Galveston, TX to Bonneville, WY (G-BNVGAT4-19A) "stinky slinky" molten sulfur train still needs to run. So, a BNSF road pilot (familiar with the Greeley Sub) got on board with a BNSF crew and took this train north. In Cheyenne, the train will use the transfer track to move back to BNSF property and continue to Bonneville. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The train is awaiting the arrival of Amtrak so it can continue north and move back to its own property in Cheyenne. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture. Photo ID: 104453 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, September 22, 2013 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed Platteville (8,299ft) Platteville, CO 1950 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Greeley (UP) BNSF A BNSF (reroute) molten sulfur train sits in the siding at Platteville. It was rerouted because floods from a week earlier took out the Front Range Sub, which was still under repair at this point. The BNSF train is awaiting the arrival of the California Zephyr, rerouting through Wyoming as the Moffat was also damaged in the flooding.
