In August and September, I was able to chase the Limon Local east out of Denver. Each of those times, the train was long enough that the crew brought a wide cab GE unit out of North Yard for the trip east. However, with only 37 cars, a pair of SD40-2s (now designated as SD40Ns after being rebuilt) were all that was needed for the train on this Sunday as it passes by hay bales just west of Agate.
