In fact, this is the first GP60M that I have shot in 17 years! Not since 2009 have I managed to catch one. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

Rennicks Yard represents BNSF's entire intermodal presence in Denver. Granted, it is not an insignificant yard, seen here form the north end. A lot of JB Hunt (and other) trailers flow through here on a weekly basis. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
