That unit on the point kind of looks like a CEFX SD90MAC leaser, but in fact it is one of the dirtiest Warbonnet's I have ever seen. BNSF 8230, an SD75M, leads the northbound HDENLAU-24 through Westminster near 80th Avenue on its journey northward.

BNSF 5497 and BNSF 5165 south lead an empty unit Sulphur Train (GBNVGAT) through the Restricted Limits Clear Creek just north of Utah Junction. The red castle in the background was home to Westminster University starting in 1908 (it was striving to be the "Princeton of the West"). However, World War I shut the school down a mere nine years later in 1917. The city of Harris, CO changed its name to Westminster in honor of the university. Today, the castle is home to a private Christian school (K-12).

Front Range (BNSF) EMD Leasing
The paint scheme applied to the "Oakway" leasing SD60's, which came out fresh in the mid-1980's, is one of my favorite schemes. 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.

EMD 9082 leads a northbound Military train north out of Utah Junction with a new track warrant. The train, loaded mostly with trucks and hummers, will make its first stop of the day at Broomfield to wait for two southbounds. UP's new Belt Flyover runs over the Front Range Sub in the background.

Extended cab GP50 3159 was one of five custom built GP50s built almost exactly 21 years ago in November of 1985. These test units were designed to comfortably fit five crew members, hence the larger cab.

BNSF 3159 (ex-BN 3149) sits on the siding at Broomfield waiting for a northbound HDENLAU to come out of Denver. BNSF 3159 was one of only five GP50s to receive a specially built cab designed to comfortably fit five crew members.

FURX 7223 leads the HDENLAU north through Longmont. 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!

With a long and heavy train, three classic EMDs (two SD40-2's and an F45XR) work hard to pull and long and heavy HDENLAU north toward Louisville.
