A former SOO SD60 (now owned by CIT Finance, a railroad leasing company) heads east out of Denver on a manifest. I thought it was particularly fortuitous, catching this unit, as I have shot it a couple of times over the previous nine months in and around Denver. For most of its time in town, it was used as power on the Beer Run between Denver and Golden.

After crossing Miller Street, the Beer Run pulls slowly west on the Golden Sub. If you look close, you can see the tracks curve to the right just ahead. BNSF's track was ripped out here (the track had been straight) due to RTD Gold Line (commuter rail) construction. The track the train is using in the mean time is one of the commuter rail tracks. BNSF's track will be move further south, away from the commuter rail tracks. Once put back in, BNSF will stop using the commuter rail track.

Even though Soo never ran in (or really anywhere near) Colorado, for some reason the paint scheme is very nostalgic for me. I do seem to recall having an HO model in the Soo scheme, so maybe that is why! Here, this former Soo SD60 is now a CEFX leaser. BNSF is utilizing its services to free up its own (more modern) power in road service.
