Remarks: The kids go back to skating once the power passes by, but mom and dad take a moment to enjoy the "peace and quiet" of a loaded coal train as it works its way south through Palmer Lake behind a pair of ES44ACs. More info at Front Range Railfanning.

Remarks: With an additional unit on the head end along with the usual two units on the rear, this southbound coal train is seemingly well above the snail's pace one usually sees a coal train doing here and is cruising along at a brisk walk.

Remarks: My last shot of the decade shows a coal empty being led by two different generations of coal power along a frozen Palmer Lake. A weathered BNSF 8818 is entering its third decade of service, and unfortunately, the paint on the early GEVOs may be heading to Fadesville just like the MAC's did...

Remarks: AMTX coal struggles up the grade in Greenland behind a late-1990s power duo. I hope when Uncle Warren takes over he opens up the checkbook and puts the paint shops to work Swoosh'ing these all-too-common faded MACs!

Remarks: Beginning on December 27, the Ski Train will once again return to Denver's Union Station. The San Luis & Rio Grande Railroad worked tirelessly with Amtrak, Union Pacific, the city of Denver, and the Winter Park ski resort among others to make this a reality for at least one more season. Providing the power for the Ski Train will be these freshly painted SD90MACs recently acquired from CITX. I realize beggars can't be choosers, but if it had been me, I would have put Rio Grande speed lettering on the nose! UPDATE Dec 28: The Ski Train has been cancelled for the 2009-2010 season. Iowa Pacific (the company that owns the San Luis & Rio Grande) and Amtrak could not reach an agreement to run the train and so ends a 69 year tradition...WAY TO GO, GUYS!

Remarks: Double Resurrection! First, Rio Grande speed lettering once again adorns the long hood of 6-axle power in the form of recently acquired SD90MACs from CITX. Second, the annual Ski Train is back for the 2009-2010 season and these MACs will be providing the power! For 69 years the Ski Train operated out of Denver's Union Station, but it was sold in the Spring of 2009. The San Luis & Rio Grande Railroad stepped in and worked out a deal with Union Pacific and Amtrak to operate the Ski Train for at least one more season. The Ski Train's season opens on December 27 and will run through March 28. Learn more at Front Range Railfanning. UPDATE Dec 28: The Ski Train has been cancelled for the 2009-2010 season.

Remarks: Remember when seeing an ex-BN SD40-2 leading a train seemed routine and kinda dull? Well, the times they have changed because shots like this are rare if not impossible anymore. Snaking stacks roll east through Lake Park.

Remarks: More than a month before BNSF would roster its first SD70ACe, the original BNSF 9284 and two sister SD60s lead an Ardoch coal empty off the Glasston sub. Less than four years later, the ACe would multiply in numbers, eventually pushing the SD60M into the 8100-series on BNSF's roster. With the SD60M falling prey and being parked during the recent economic downturn, it's still a mystery if shots like this will ever be possible again. More info at Grand Forks Railfanning.
