A westbound BNSF manifest passes by the steel structure located near the east end of Barbara's Gulch. A pair of "catfish", Norfolk Southern GEs, assist in the pull up the grade.

It is not uncommon for railfans to joke that BNSF and Norfolk Southern should merge...after all, "NS" already makes up the middle two letters of "BNSF". Then, of course, there are trains like this in which you have a nice mix of both BNSF and NS power! The Denver-Provo is pulling west through Barbara's Gulch.

Interestingly, the three units on the point of this westbound are all older (relatively speaking...late 90s and early 2000s) power, yet the two DPUs on the tail end are quite a bit newer. Alas, they are both facing west, so "going away" shots wouldn't be the best.
