For about a decade, the SD70MAC reigned king on BNSF coal trains. Today, it is somewhat rare to find a pair lashed up together! However, that was the case on a beautiful Thursday afternoon as this pair of SD70MACs bring up the rear of a northbound coal empty. Longs Peak makes for a great backdrop as the train hustles across Wadsworth Blvd in Westminster.

A great background indeed, and a great shot.  
Especially for a (too) occasional visitor from Europe, for whom the railroad crossing signs are iconic.
