As always, it starts with a horn |
Description: |
We were coming back from lunch, and as we got out of the car, I could hear a train climbing up from Watts. A quick change of shoes-I wear this boot on my right foot now, to combat a condition called charcot-and off I went. I played chase til Gravette, where I was finally able to get ahead far enough to set up a shot. Here is the quarry, the 181 train, having just crossed Dallas St. |

Cant fight city hall |
Description: |
But you can take a photo of a train passing it. The grain train rolls past the old KCS station at Anderson, one of a number of them preserved either as museums, or as this one, and the one in Noel, now a municipal building. The area here has been cleaned up quite a bit since I last did this shot some years ago. Looks much nicer. The single unit works well here, too; two would also be manageable. More than that, and you don't get the whole consist. Now just need to get a clean unit leading here. |

Surprise!! |
Description: |
I beat the grain train to Noel, expecting it to roll on through. I must not have heard anything on the radio about a meet, or missed the transmission. As I got out of the car, I heard a horn to the south. I had to scramble to get this shot of a 127 car 261 train approaching along Butler Creek. |

The boxcar that was being used as a storage shed at this house in Siloam Springs-see photos from Nov 22 and Nov 23- has been pushed onto its side. Any time Ive seen a car toppled like this, its usually a sign that it will be cut up fairly soon. This car was only recently tipped, in the last few weeks. |
