The southbound HPASSAG-24 holds the main track at Broomfield while waiting for the HDENLAU-27 to come out of Denver to meet it. The PASSAG (Pasco, WA to Saginaw, TX) manifest is holding the main rather than the siding because there is another southbound coming out of Boulder, so there will be a three-way meet at Broomfield and the HDENLAU will hold the siding for both southbounds.

The HDENLAU has a very colorful consist for the day as it approaches the south siding switch of Broomfield. At Broomfield, the train will clear up in the siding to meet the southbound QPASSAG, which was between Boulder and Broomfield.

An interesting load of maintenance equipment, led by a single (repainted) SD60M, hold in the siding at Broomfield while waiting for the northbound HDENLAU. This is also my first shot taken during lunch from my new office in Westminster!

The last bit of sunlight from the day shines off the top of Longs Peak - one of the 50+ mountain peaks over 14,000 feet in Colorado. The light power has a warrant all the way into town.

Not more than a minute after the sun ducked behind the mountains of the front range, light power from the Longmont Turn passes through Louisville. The light power was the second in a string of southbounds coming down the Front Range Sub.

This unit tie train, led by two warbonnets, is on the approach to Utah Junction. The train is about to pass underneath the three-year-old Belt Flyover. There is a westbound UP coal empty sitting on Bypass One with a sole DPU on the end.

Nearing the end of its long run, this southbound manifest cleared its warrant and thanked the dispatcher for a good run from Cheyenne to Denver! Meanwhile, I was thanking BNSF for selecting such nice power for the trip south.

Two SD75s (the leader an SD75I and the trailer an SD75M) lead this unit tie train into Denver off the Front Range Sub. The first car - the empty flat - is there as a buffer car between the power and the unit train.

A southbound tie train approaches the south end of Broomfield on the main track with two SD75 Warbonnets for power. The lead unit, BNSF 8301, was the last SD75I to be delivered to BNSF. The second unit, BNSF 8202, was the third SD75M to be delivered to Santa Fe.

It seems like more often then not, the Laurel to Denver (HLAUDEN) runs with two C44-9W's on the point and one DPU'd on the back. It's nice when "the norm" is broken every once in awhile...true, they are still all C44-9W's, but at least all three are on the point!

The southbound HLAUDEN is on the approach to Boulder, moving along at 20 MPH. The train is relatively short today, with only 39 cars. This curve is at the south end of the Diagonal, where CO-119 and Foothills Parkway merge. I particularly like the trees along the tracks to the right.

As you are viewing the photo gallery, note this picture as it might be my last from the Boulder siding for quite some time! Six days after this shot was taken, my office (in Boulder) moved to a new office (in Westminster), taking away my need from being in Boulder on a daily basis.

Even though I was hunting trains, this buck came along and was leaving some deer tracks alongside the railroad tracks in Boulder! The buck was casually walking along the tracks westbound, indifferent to my presence.

While waiting for the daily HLAUDEN (Laurel, MT to Denver) manifest in Boulder, I happened to see Bambi's dad come strolling along! The buck seemed indifferent to me - standing about 40 feet away - while munching on some grass.

After securing its train in the clear, the Longmont Turn is about to proceed north (geographically west) to the Boulder siding where it will clear up for a southbound that is currently leaving Longmont. Afterward, the light power will return to Longmont for the day.
