The conductor on the northbound manifest gives a wave to the crew on the southbound sitting in the siding at Boulder. The southbound is a ballast train that is headed for Broomfield to lay ballast on the siding extension at the north end. Once the manifest clears and the Buck Local (currently tucked away in industry tracks at Valmont about a mile south) gets to Broomfield, the ballast train will also get a track warrant to head south to Broomfield.
