Railroad photograph

At the north siding switch of Broomfield, the southbound Laurel, MT to Denver, CO manifest takes a "sharp left" and heads in to the siding. The "sharp left" is in railroad terms, of course. The siding and the main at Broomfield are, for the most part, on separate grades and there is quite a bit of distance between them in places. The first of two northbounds the HLAUDEN will meet is sitting on the main, waiting for the train to get in the clear and then to get a track warrant to proceed north.
