Photo ID: 101572 Date Shot Photo By Wednesday, August 29, 2007 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed 38th Street Denver, CO 1919 (1 Comment Posted) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots BNSF Of the many great things about the Warbonnet paint scheme, the highly reflective silver works very well in morning light. For a time, BNSF actually painted newly received C44-9Ws in the Warbonnet scheme, before dropping it entirely in favor of the Heritage 2.

Photo ID: 101571 Date Shot Photo By Wednesday, August 29, 2007 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed 38th Street Denver, CO 2227 (2 Comments Posted) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots BNSF One of only four remaining GP10s (at the time of the photo) was calling Denver home for awhile! The cab almost has an Alco look to it, which is one of the things that identifies the unit as a GP10 and not a low-nose GP7 or GP9.

Photo ID: 101570 Date Shot Photo By Wednesday, August 29, 2007 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed 38th Street Denver, CO 2003 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots BNSF Looks like BNSF is starting to patch the few-remaining BN units with the New Image herald on the cab. Keeping with tradition, BNSF matches the color of the unit for the patch (whereas UP just throws a yellow sticker on the cab).

Photo ID: 101569 Date Shot Photo By Tuesday, August 28, 2007 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed 38th Street Denver, CO 1737 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots BNSF At first glance, there may not be a lot that is particularly interesting in this shot. However, the reason I snapped this one is because of the paint schemes. It is the first and (as of the time of the shot), the only picture I have with BNSF's Heritage, Heritage 2, and New Image scheme all in the same shot.

Photo ID: 101567 Date Shot Photo By Tuesday, August 28, 2007 Kevin Morgan Location Times Viewed 38th Street Denver, CO 1620 (Add a Comment) Subdivision Railroad Yard Shots BNSF An interesting mix of paint schemes for the year 2007. On the left, Kansas City Southern's white paint scheme (now retired). On the right, of course, is Santa Fe's Warbonnet. Not a bad mix between the two of them, really!

This was always my personal favorite scheme for the railroad, so I was happy to come across this SD40-2, even if it is looking a little bit shoddy!

The line above originates to the north (right) at Sand Creek off BNSF's Brush Sub. It is an industrial lead track that services several industries northeast of I-70 and Colorado Blvd. The lower track was once the CRIP's (Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific) line into town to connect with the Rio Grande's Belt Line. In the future, Union Pacific has plans to add a second track and send coal traffic to the Limon Sub via the CRIP! Email Questions or Comments to the Webmaster or add a comment to the picture.
