Yard Shots CSX
It isn't every day that CSX units make an appearance in Denver! On this particularly day, however, a pair of them came in with a train off the Brush Sub. Both units have AC traction motors, as indicated by the lightning bolt beneath the number on the cab. CSX only adds this lightning bolts to AC units.

Yard Shots CSX
I realize this is the third picture showing these CSX units sitting in BNSF's yard. The reason I wanted to add this one is I found the (former) SOO unit in the background an interesting addition. CSX and SOO, two railroads that don't (or didn't) operate anywhere near Colorado, both represented in this single shot in Denver!

Yard Shots CSX
An interesting pair of (borrowed) CSX units were hanging around near BNSF's engine house on this particular afternoon. This shot does a nice job of comparing and contrasting CSX's older "Gray" scheme (on the C40-8) with their newer "Dark Future" scheme (on the ex-Conrail SD60I).

The face of a rare visitor on the left of this picture! CSX units don't show up in Denver all that often...and when they do, the typically are not standard cab GE units. However, on this snowy March 1st, a CSX C40-8 was among the BNSF units near BNSF's engine house in Denver.

Moffat Tunnel (UP) CSX, Union Pacific
In the past, the departure of the MNYRO (Manifest, North Yard, CO to Roper, UT) was somewhat predictable, typically departing North Yard between 7am and 8am. For the last year or so, it has been much harder to predict. It has been departing anywhere between 6am and 3pm. On this chilly February morning, the train is about to knock down the signal at East Rocky five minutes before 7 o'clock in the morning. On board for the journey west is an east coast visitor!

Front Range (BNSF) CSX, BNSF
Far from home, this CSX C40-8W is putting in some power sharing miles as it heads north on BNSF's Front Range Sub. This is the first C40-8W that I've seen (well, at least shot) in nearly six years. Highlighting the fact that older power is being utilized as much as possible by railroads right now.

Talk about a unique and colorful consist! On a partly cloudy July afternoon, a westbound BNSF manifest is led by a trio of units without a trace of orange...well, okay...there is a trace of orange on the lead unit. But the BNSF Warbonnet / CSX Blue and Gray / ex-SOO Leaser lashup was a very welcome sight indeed.

A pacing shot of BNSF 5295 leading the "stinky slinky" north on UP's Greeley Subdivision. The last thing Colorado needs right now, more rain, build in the thunderstorms to the east.

Greeley (UP) BNSF, CSX
BNSF trains running from Denver to northern Colorado are not unusual. BNSF trains doing this on UP's Greeley Sub are unusual! Due to the closure of the Front Range Sub after flooding a week earlier, the Galveston, TX to Bonneville, WY (G-BNVGAT4-19A) "stinky slinky" molten sulfur train still needs to run. So, a BNSF road pilot (familiar with the Greeley Sub) got on board with a BNSF crew and took this train north.

In Cheyenne, the train will use the transfer track to move back to BNSF property and continue to Bonneville.

I went ahead and grabbed a roster shot of this AC4400CW, if for no other reason then because I have very few pictures of CSX units on my site! After all, Colorado isn't exactly CSX country...

While I try not to include an excess of roster shots, Dark Future CSX SD70MAC's aren't exactly common place in Colorado! This happens to be my favorite phase of the SD70M(AC) too - the Phase 2 - which has the slightly flared radiators.

A CSX coal empty heads north through the Jacksonville suburb of Lakeside. I was hoping for a southbound hear, but when you are on vacation, you have to take what you can get!
