I have heard the question come up in the railfan community how many siding there are that aren't quite parallel to the main. The siding of Broomfield is an excellent example of this! Not only are the tracks not quite parallel, but they actually lay on two different grades. The HPASSAG (in the foreground) heads south on the main while the HDENLAU (in the background) holds on the elevated siding. It will be interesting to see how much this changes with the introduction of commuter trains along here.
