On an extraordinarily hazy day July day, an eastbound BNSF Provo-Denver makes its way through Barbara's Gulch, four units on the head end and two DPUs bringing up the back. The train had been tied down in the siding at Rocky since the pre-dawn hours, but a relief crew finally came and got it. The haze, incidentally, is primarily due to summer forest fires to the northwest.

A pair of C44-9Ws, one in Heritage 2 paint and one in the Warbonnet scheme, lead two ES44ACs as this eastbound manifest approaches the switch to the old Chem Spur. The spur has now been out of service for about a decade.

BNSF 704, sporting one of the most popular paint schemes in railroading (the Warbonnet Scheme) is the second unit on this eastbound BNSF Provo-Denver. The Warbonnet does have an order battery cover behind the cab. This component is compatible with all like models, and is frequently changed out. Also of note, half the nose has just be straight up repainted in red. Regardless, the unit still looks mighty good, nearly 30 years after the BNSF merger.
