Or, at a minimum, was recently repainted. The "Dark Future" on this CSX unit looks darn near pristine as the fourth unit on the BNSF Laurel, MT to Denver, CO manifest.

BNSF 4717 is a great example, third on the southbound Laurel-Denver manifest this morning. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Photo ID: 114018 Date Shot Photo By Friday, June 12, 2026 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed Rennicks Yard Denver, CO 18 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots BNSF East of Rennicks Yard, there are roughly a dozen or so companies that ship and/or receive via rail. BNSF has a switch job that works six days a week switching cars out for the industries. Currently, a pair of GP39-2s have the task. The units are remote control enabled, so a single crewman is capable of throw switching and uncoupling cars, while controlling the units from his remote pack.

BNSF 1656 is still wearing cascade green and has its nose stripes as it leads an eastbound local between Fox and Sand Creek.

It is the blue "meat" in an orange BNSF "sandwich" on the Provo-Denver. The train is very short today, so the train has five units on the head end, rather than three on the head end and two DPUs on the rear.

The Zephyr has already departed Denver, and dispatchers would usually hold an eastbound at Rocky for a meet. Turned out the meet worked out great, with the manifest in the clear in time to not slow down the Zephyr at all. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

If you are reading this comment and are not familiar, BNSF bought out MRL at the start of 2025. BNSF took over MRL's rail lines and property, including all motive power. The MRL SD70ACes have been shuffled into the fleet, though they never lead, as they are not PTC-equipped. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

It has cleared the east switch, and will stop before blocking the grade crossing. The train will have to wait here for two eastbounds. The first is the Zephyr, and the second is a fellow BNSF train (the Provo-Denver). The crew on the Provo-Denver is running short on time, so the dispatcher is trying to keep them moving.

BNSF 5696 is leading BNSF's Denver to Laurel, MT is at the start of the Front Range Sub. It will take the train north to Cheyenne, WY (and beyond). Meanwhile, UP power is getting ready to tie on to some cars that will create UP's North Yard to Green River, WY manifest. That train will depart across this same diamond on the other track, and ultimately head north to Cheyenne, WY as well, on its way to Green River, WY.
