I've always been a fan of blue, so I particularly like these units. Twenty years later, their paint is still holding up pretty well for the most part! EMD 9082 is leading a northbound Military Train on the Front Range Sub the day after Thanksgiving. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

And in the case, the term "through" is not exaggerating at all! BNSF's Front Range Sub runs right up the middle of Atwood Street in Longmont - houses on either side of the street. The train creeps up the street at a speed of no more that 10 to 12 MPH! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.

The siding and the main follow completely different terrains that differ in altitude by as much as twenty feet as you can see in this picture. The QDENTAC moves north through the siding above while the MLAUDEN moves south on the main below. Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
