The train is actually quite short, too, compared to the average manifest BNSF runs on the Moffat. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Not that we see CP units in Denver particularly often, but knowing the lifespan of this paint scheme is officially limited with the creation of CPKC, it's always good to get some shots.

The train is actually quite short, at only 3,100 feet in the length, meaning the back half of the train is not wrapped around Little Ten Curve.

Like most BNSF manifests on the Moffat, the train is primarily comprised of tank cars. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture. Photo ID: 111136 Date Shot Photo By Thursday, September 26, 2024 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed Rocky (7,330ft) Arvada, CO 135 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Moffat Tunnel (UP) BNSF A very short BNSF manifest is tied down in the siding at Rocky, awaiting a recrew. Note that the derail is set at the east end. This is to protect against the possibility of the train rolling out onto the main track. Were the train to roll, it would be derailed away from the main track. Fortunately, the likelihood of that happening is near zero as the train has hand brakes applied on the train, and the engines are continually charging the brake line to keep the train brakes applied.
