A trio of SD70MACs lead up BNSF's Denver to Provo manifest on the approach to Cliff. This is a pretty rare consist for BNSF trains on the Moffat. It is far more common to find C44-9W. The SD70MACs typically run in coal service.

Rare catch, you usually don't see 70MAC's on anything except coal trains.
