A few years ago, this little area called Sinnard Industrial (been around since the early 1900's) was a pretty hopin' place. GWR and BNSF would service these businesses called the Poudre Valley Coop by I-25, such as Ace Hardware, FT Collins Truss (building supplies), John Deere Tractor, Hydra Trucking warehouse, and the Centennial Livestock auction.
The end of the line for the Black Hollow Branch a year ago was just east of the Cloverleaf Mobile Home Park:
Until recently, the track east of I-25 was used as overflow and extra storage for the North Yard to ease up traffic problems:
Sadly this section of track is no longer in service (pic taken last September):
The new end of line has been moved west of I-25. The BH branch now only services Ace Hardware for occasional deliveries of liquid fertilizer:
For the purpose of the Trainz route, the Poudre Valley Coop continues to receive goods from the rails and the line is back in service:
Eastern Larimer and western Weld Counties are under a severe thunderstorm warning:
