Yard Shots Norfolk Southern, BNSF
A string of five units sit ready for assignment, basking away in the later afternoon sun. The front-most unit is a Norfolk Southern SD70M-2, which don't make their way to Colorado very often. In the distance, a "Rocktober" banner is still posted on Coors Field, thanks to the Rockies fantastic performance since June.

Yard Shots Norfolk Southern
A Norfolk Southern C40-9W was hanging out with BNSF power near the diesel shops. Norfolk Southern ordered their Dash-9s from GE with 4,000 HP instead of 4,400 HP, hence the C40-9W designation instead of the typical C44-9W designation.

I thought it was interesting that I happened to see this Norfolk Southern unit hanging out in Denver. Why? Because it is the exact same unit on shot on the Pueblo-Provo the day before Thanksgiving! Looks like it made the round trip back to Denver from Provo.

Moffat Tunnel (UP) BNSF, Norfolk Southern
BNSF's Pueblo to Provo train - consisting entirely of tank cars - had a nice black and white surprise in the consist! A fairly new Norfolk Southern ES40DC was sandwiched between two BNSF C44-9Ws for the trip west.

Go ahead, take a guess as to who this train belongs to! Running on UP tracks, this westbound is being led by an NS C40-9W, a CSX SD50 and a BNSF ES44AC! It is in fact a BNSF track rights train, the MPUEPVO, headed to Provo, UT. The train is just west of Leyden.

This is only the second SD70M-2 that I've seen up to the date of the photo. A bit of a rare sight in Denver, a Norfolk Southern unit passes through town on BNSF's Provo to Denver manifest.

A rather unique Norfolk Southern C40-9W sits at the house at BNSF 38th street facility. The unit is wearing an Operation Lifesaver scheme. The text on the long hood beneath "Operation Lifesaver" reads "Saving Lives at America's Highway-Rail Crossings." The text in the circle to the right reads "25 Years, Operation Lifesaver". Red text printed on the white circle itself reads "You're Our Living Proof. 1972-1997." Only about ten such units received this special scheme.
