Leisurely Local

Dwarfed by the imposing flatirons to the west, the Buck Local trundles up the Buckwheat Branch at a leisurely 5 MPH. The lead unit has an interesting connection to home, being built as NKP 904 before being overhauled for Burlington Northern in the early 90s. Another detail for viewers with a keen eye is the right of way of the Moffat Tunnel subdivision directly above the unit and to the right, threading the flatirons and entering the tunnel district.
