Great Western Railroad is a shortline that switches dozens of businesses in northern Colorado. The railroad interchanges with BNSF in Longmont and Ft Collins and interchanges with UP in Milliken and Greeley. Due to the volume of interchange traffic in Greeley, in 2016, UP built a full CTC control point to make interchanging easier. In this shot, NS 4004 leads an empty grain train off GWR tracks and on to UP's Greeley Sub at Greeley Jct (CP W952).
