On Valentine's Day in 2016, Union Pacific closed the Burnham Shops in Denver, permanently. This had been Rio Grande's main diesel and car repair facility in Denver, separate from North Yard. The rails have long since been pulled up, and the property has been sold. It sounds like the Denver Broncos will be getting a brand new stadium, built on this location! As such, a demolition crew has started tearing down the buildings.
