BNSF Galesburg-Denver mixed freight charges west past the small lake near the east switch of Tonville. At this time of year (and day), the train is heading almost directly in to the sun...makes it hard to get well-lit shots of the side of the train!

Just another GEVO? Look a little closer! The radiator housing has a higher slope and the compartment that houses the prime mover is a bit higher. This is a General Electric prototype for an engine that complies with the EPA's Tier 4 emissions requirements. The unit (GECX 2022), along with the GE dynamometer test car (#100), are on the way to the Transportation Technology Center east of Pueblo.

A relatively short BNSF Galesburg, IL to Denver, CO (HGALDEN1-04A) makes its way west toward Denver between Barr and Irondale. It is running parallel to I-76 and the tail end is crossing underneath 120th Avenue.

The ever-expanding city of Brighton, along with I-76, is visible in the background as BNSF's Galesburg, IL to Denver, CO mixed freight crosses over a creek at MP 527.92. The freight has GECX 2022, a prototype for a Tier 4 GE GEVO, DIC in tow.

A look at the conductors side of the GECX 2022, a GE prototype that meets the EPA's Tier 4 emissions specifications. Those specifications go in to effect in 2015, so both GE and EMD are getting prepared!

This shot offer a pretty good look at the radiator housing on GE's new Tier 4 emissions GEVO. It is noticeably larger and has a greater slope that previous iterations. The single number board in back is somewhat interesting too. Unlike the popular (with BNSF, anyway) ES44C4 - whose axle configuration is A1A-A1A - this prototype has all six axles powered.

A pacing shot, offering a full length view of this latest GEVO model from GE. It is just about a foot longer than the traditional ES44AC. Must need the extra foot for the equipment used to meet EPA Tier 4 emissions standards.

The Galesburg, IL to Denver, CO mixed freight has just about reached its destination! The train just knocked down the triple signal at 48th Avenue, the entrance in to BNSF's Denver Yard.

General Electric uses this dynamometer test car out on the road when it is testing new/prototype locomotives. Case-in-point is here, as the car is going along with GECX 2022 (new Tier 4 GEVO prototype) enroute to Pueblo, CO
