Railroad photograph
Photo by: Kevin Morgan
The siding at the main are on very different grades near the west end of Broomfield. This is because, once upon a time, the two lines belonged to separate railroads. In this shot, the train on the right (the "Stinky Slinky") is holding while the train on the left (a coal empty) pulls north through the siding.

Kevin - I enjoy all of your pictures and am interested in learning about where the different locations are. Where is the west end of Broomfield from which this shot was taken? Thanks.
