Photo ID: 101084 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, November 26, 2006 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed MP 636 Denver, CO 1682 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Limon (UP) KYLE I don't typically post photos of rail cars, but I thought this car was a reasonable exception! Built over thirty years ago, this former Rock Island boxcar clearly shows its heritage beneath its rusty exterior! The boxcar is now owned by the shortline Kyle Railroad in eastern Colorado / western Kansas. Its original Rock Island number was 300778.

Photo ID: 101083 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, November 26, 2006 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed MP 636 Denver, CO 1619 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Limon (UP) Union Pacific Two units lead the eastbound MDVSI-26 on the Limon Subdivision. The train is moving at restricted speed as its track warrant is joint with another train. The Roydale Local (LDJ03) is working further east near Havana street and it too is occupying the main track. UP 3932 and crew must be prepared to stop in one-half the distance of vision of the track ahead. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The train is passing over a BNSF track that is now abandoned (at least, this far to the south). There is actually still railhead buried underneath all that dirt!

Photo ID: 101081 Date Shot Photo By Sunday, November 26, 2006 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed Roydale Denver, CO 1853 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Limon (UP) Union Pacific One of the Roydale Locals (the LDJ03) had a huge train that it was working on switching near Havana Street on the Limon Sub. Half the local (probably 40 cars) were sitting on the main track blocking through traffic while another 30 or so cars were being switched in industries. The lead unit, UP 1526, was SSW 7291 until August 5, 2005. I found that I actually have a shot of SSW 7291 taken on August 1, 2003 in Delta, CO on the Montrose Local!!

Appeared to be in descent condition, all things considered. Couldn't really tell how recently it was last used. There was also no indicating if UP owned it or if is was privately owned.

Here, the MLMDVX (Limon to Denver extra) has just passed Quebec street on the Limon Sub heading west toward Denver. 36th street would have the train hold at Steele Street until a place could be cleared for the train.

With the behind the camera, the blue in the sky is very vibrant! Note that this coal empty has second generation power (CEFX 2802, a former UP SD40-2 and HLCX 5969, a former UP/CNW SD60)…and that's it!
