Eastbound Amtrak Southwest Chief Train #4
Title:  Eastbound Amtrak Southwest Chief Train #4
Description:  My ride's here. I'll hop on and go home I guess. I couldn't pass up the fare: $69. I don't think I could have walked home for that price. The train arrived around 6:50 P.M., 33 minutes early. The train left right on time at 7:23 P.M. We arrived into Kansas City, MO at 8:29 A.M. on Tuesday, December 11, 2007, 1 hour and 3 minutes late.

KCS 2007 Holiday Express
Title:  KCS 2007 Holiday Express
Description:  The Holiday Express has just pulled into Drexel for its first scheduled stop here on its 7th Annual Run. This was my first good look at the FP9's (excluding my brief glimpse of them in Shreveport this past June). They sure looked great in the late afternoon sun with the Pyle National Gyralight and Twin Sealed Beam Headlight. KCS 1 also has a nice Nathan P5. Nothing like a set of A-B-A Covered Wagons sitting in town for 5 hours.
