Yard Shots BNSF
At the south end of Rennicks yard, BNSF's Denver-Laurel manifest is pulling north on the "New North Main" through Fox Junction. The train is quite long today, coming in at over 8,000 feet in the length. While the head end is over here at Fox, the tail is still in the yard over at 31st Street. The train is starting to pull up toward Utah Jct to clear up for the Zephyr, which is ready to head west (but currently blocked).

Yard Shots DOTX
Was a bit surprised to find this FRA "Office of Safety" inspection car sitting on the old Denargo wye near BNSF's 31st Street Yard this morning. The power, a UP unit, was uncoupled and parked a few hundred feet away. I am guessing that the inspection train will depart Monday morning. The Denargo wye connects BNSF's 31st Street Yard and UP's 36th Street Yard. About 15 years ago, it was upgraded to welded rail and the one grade crossing on the line was upgraded. Ironically, with UP now using 36th Street only for local preparation and storage, and not for classification, the wye is never used. This is probably the first piece of equipment that has been on the wye in months, if not year.

Yard Shots BNSF
Several units sit near BNSF's engine house on this sunny Sunday morning. The string of four units close to the camera is the power for the Beer Run that will head out to Golden later in the day. The GP40-2 and SD40-2 will serve as the power on the Golden Switch this week. That is the local that runs east out of Golden to switch industries along the line.
