BNSF 1700 Greenland Wider 11 Dec 14

The Pikes Peak Local has the ponies cranked up as it ascends the grade in the open space of Greenland, CO. Not sure where that smoke is coming from...perhaps a traction motor on the trailing SD60M?

 

Running two times per week seems criminally low since this is the only train to run this section of the Joint Line with standard cab power, but when it's running and the sun is out and I have free time, it's a no brainer chase!
