Pulling down |
| Description: |
After shooting the coal train, we headed for home up US 59, on the thought that maybe something else will coming south, or at Watts. We were right. An M KCSH was pulling down to the south end of Watts to work as we got into town. |

Around the curve |
| Description: |
The M train has picked up 24 cars along with the dodger power, and pulls around the curve toward MP 237 to clear the interlocking at South Watts to get back to his train. The late afternoon sun glints off the four axle power KCS uses on locals. Theyve acquired quite a few GEs as road power in the last 20 years. As I look at the GPs used for locals, I have to wonder what a KCS four motor GE might look like, a B 23-7, say. |

Y City Rd |
| Description: |
I didnt beat the train to Gentry, but I knew I could get ahead of him before he got to Decatur, and a spot with OK sun angle, since it was the middle of the day. I set up at Y City Road, just north of the new Simmons plant, which gave me enough room to get all six units. |

Wider look |
| Description: |
A bit wider angle shows the full power consist and some of the train. When I crossed the tracks to set up this shot, I saw the signal just to the north flashing yellow, approach medium for the next signal in downtown Decatur, which would be displaying approach. That meant a meet at Dorsey, between Decatur and Gravette. I rolled the coal train by, and waited for the southbound. |

Meeting a coal train |
| Description: |
I was headed home from a doctors appointment this momrning, and saw the coal train slowly working into the siding as I approached the crossing on Kenwood St. Catching the head end was not going to work, and I thought the meet would be imminent. I was right, and had taken up a position at Lake Frances Rd. The southbound 100 car grain train is passing the DPU on the empty TXUX coal train as it approaches CP South Siloam Springs. |

Through the signals |

The southbound grain train rolls between the boards at CP South Siloam Springs as the coal train starts to move off the siding. The cars at right are in the siding of Pipelife Jetstream, which makes PVC pipe. They get switched by a Watts based local, most days in the morning |
