A BNSF yard job is waiting on a string of covered hoppers for BNSF's Laurel to Denver manifest (that just came off the Front Range Sub) to clear so it can continue switching. The train is pulling in to Track 46. In the distance, Sunday morning traffic hustles along on I-25. Further in the distance, you can see the interchange between I-25 and I-70, referred to by locals as "The Mouse Trap".

Here is a wide variety of classic EMD units, most of which have been rebuilt to one extent or another. BNSF 2549 is a GP39-3, rebuilt from a GP30. You can still see the GP30 dynamic brake intakes and two of the three radiator fans. Back in the distance on the next track over, you can see what was once an SD45-2, now an SD40-2. The power is sitting at the shop, just off of the main through Denver.

I have long appreciated the fact that, when patching old Santa Fe and Burlington Northern units, BNSF matched the color scheme for the patches. Unlike UP, which simply slapped a yellow and red patch on the cabs. Nearly 30 years after the BNSF merger, a blue and yellow GP39-2 is seen hanging out around the Denver yard.
