A brand new Boeing 737-8 MAX sits on on a flat car (without its wings, of course) on an eastbound Q-train in the siding at Tonville. The fuselage is headed to the Boeing assembly plant at Renton, southeast of Seattle, for final assembly. Interestingly, in this shot, an American Airlines plane is on final approach at Denver International Airport. It was too far away to identify, but if it is a 737, there is a good chance its fuselage may have once been on a train, right here at Tonville as well!

An eastbound BNSF Q-train is in the siding at Tonville, meeting BNSF's westbound ZCHIDEN (Z-train from Chicago, IL to Denver, CO). The Z-train largely consists of JB Hunt containers, and is the hottest train that BNSF runs in Colorado.

Two of the highest priority trains that BNSF runs on the Brush Sub meet at the siding of Tonville. The train on the main is the ZCHIDEN, which is the highest priority train that BNSF has in the state of Colorado. So, no surprise that the Q-train is the train in the siding.

Sunset is not far off as BNSF's Z-train streaks by two Boeing fuselages that are currently in the siding at Tonville. Once the Z-train, which is clipping along at 50+ MPH, clears the east switch, the Q-train will get a light to proceed east.

A pair of Canadian Pacific units (an ES44AC and a AC4400CWM) are on this eastbound BNSF Q-train, stopping in the siding at Tonville. The CP paint scheme is, of course, one that will be disappearing in the months and years to come after the merger of Canadian Pacific and Kansas City Southern, creating CPKC.

Some dramatic evening storm clouds are lit as the sun breaks through the clouds to the west, illuminating three Boeing fuselages on this Q-train at Tonville. The first fuselage is a 737-9 MAX and the second two are 737-8 MAXs. They are headed to final assembly at Renton in Seattle.

This eastbound BNSF Q-train finally has a green signal to depart the siding of Tonville eastbound. The last bit of direct sunlight lights up the six units leading this eastbound BNSF Q-train under some beautiful, stormy clouds.

Just minutes before the sun dipped behind the mountains, the last bit of sunlight lights up the side of this eastbound BNSF Q-train, including three Boeing 737 fuselages.
