Mojaveflyer Loc: Denver, CO
 
I had some free time on Friday so I decided to head east along the BNSF Brush Subdivision from Denver. I followed several trains but the first train I caught was an empty grain train running with one engine on the head end and two at the rear of the train that had 90 cars in it. I've been wanting to catch a train on the sweeping curve on the approach to Akron and had that opportunity with the BNSF 3797. It was the end of a chase of several trains that day that proved to be a very enjoyable day....
