BNSF 2260 Greenland 22 Mar 10
On April 17th, 2020, with the arrival of the Pikes Peak Local back to its home in Denver, the PPL ceased to exist. The decades-long mainstay and railfan-favorite on the Joint Line, which ran south from Denver to Colorado Springs on Mondays and Thursdays and north to Denver on Tuesdays and Fridays and which was the only way to catch standard cab units running the line, would be replaced by a Local that now runs out of Pueblo to Colorado Springs. So, to honor the passing of the subdivision's namesake train, I will be uploading photos of the PPL that haven't previously been shared on Flickr:

Here, a pair of Swoosh'd Geeps leads the PPL south through Greenland, CO and in front of Rattlesnake Butte.
