Waiting |
| Description: |
There was chatter about a train at MdElhany, the next siding to the north, and a power swap. It seemed the coal train would be sitting a bit. It was getting toward twilight, and I had dinner waiting, so time to head home. Still, three trains in a short afternoon chase aint too shabby. |

Right place, right time |
| Description: |
Wed taken my wifes car up to Gentry where one of my sons customers-hes the manager of the local OReilllys parts store-was going to look at it, a 2001 Stratus R/T, to see what repairs it needed. After talking to him, my wife took off for home, just as a southbound was pulling to the end of the siding. Ah, good, a meet. I went up to the Ark 59S crossing to get the northbound participant, an empty AEPX train, seen here at the crossing. |

While I was shooting the northbound, the southbound started to move. He got just far enough that I couldnt get him at Collins St, so beat feet for Davidson Rd, which I made handily. Southbound behind a UP/KCS mix. And that sky!! |
