This SD75M, still painted up in Warbonnet, was definitely worth a roster shot! The unit was second of two units powering the Cheyenne Local. This unit is still in excellent condition!

The Cheyenne Local, which runs between Cheyenne, WY and Denver, CO on the Front Range Sub, was tied down in the siding at Boulder on March 10. It was a cold and snowy day in Colorado. The lead unit was a patch Santa Fe SD40-2 and the second unit was a very nice SD75M painted in Warbonnet!

A southbound Military Train parallels the Diagonal just north of Boulder ten minutes prior to sunset. The military train was carrying support vehicles (trucks and hummers). With the two green and white SD40-2's for power, this looks like it could have been taken 10 or even 20 years ago!

Making its way south, the STCPDEN-01A passes Valmont Resevoir with a warrant from MP 33 to MP 18. The second and third units are from the two best-selling series EMD has ever produced (albeit there is a 30 year gap between the 70-series and 40-series). The units are KCS 4009 (an SD70ACe) and BNSF 7920 (an SD40-2).

In a semi-rare move, BNSF sent the STCPDEN-01A down the Front Range Sub without an orange paint scheme in sight! In fact, the power was extremely unique, with a BNSF warbonnet leading, followed by brand new KCS SD70ACe (#4009) and the BNSF 7920. The train is on the approach to Boulder here, about a half mile north of the Foothills Parkway overpass.

Palmer Lake is not quite as high as it usually is, but the east shores of the frozen lake make for a nice foreground for the Denver to Barstow train heading south in the background.

Spruce marks one of three locations on the Joint Line where ownership of the two main tracks changes between UP and BNSF. BNSF 4479 is just moving down into "the sag" as it changes from BNSF-owned track to UP-owned track on main one.

Sometime, when you are out on the Joint Line, you can get lucky enough to get a southbound and a northbound in the same shot. Such was the case on this day as BNSF 4479 (on the former ATSF grade; main one) "meets" with a northbound manifest (on the former DRGW grade; main two) just south of Larkspur.

If you are familiar with the bridge on the southbound track still labeled "Santa Fe" to this day (just south of Larkspur), then you know right where this picture was taken! The covered hopper visible just behind the box car is just coming over that bridge.

Under hazy thin clounds, BNSF 4479 south makes its way through Castle Rock. Another half mile down the road, and the train will be running parallel to I-25 and its Frontage Road for the next five miles on the way toward Larkspur.

Sedalia marks the location where the two mains change ownerships. BNSF 4479 is passing the crossover between the two mains as it moves from UP-owned track to BNSF-owned track.

Southbounds headed ofr the Joint Line will often request a track warrant when they are at Walnut Street. Walnut Street intersects with the tracks directly underneath Auraria Parkway, just barely east of I-25.
