Another recycling trip |
Description: |
It was a nice day, 50s and sun, with snow/clouds in store for the next several days, and I had all the boxes and such from Christmas overflowing my bins, so it was time. I dumped all the recycling, and went to check signals. As I was approaching Davidson Rd, I saw a southbound. I did better than last time, catching him at Country Club Rd, a KCSM unit leading a CP unit at 63 cars past the Cobb mill. |

The southbound rolls through the S curve, straightening out as it rolls south. The shrubbery is starting to get tall here, Next summer may be a problem with this angle. |

Peek-a-boo |
Description: |
The head end of the 262 train sneaks around the curve and into view at MP 237. For a brief moment I considered running up to the Illinois River bridge to shoot the 261 train, which at this time of day is a beautiful, well lit shot, and would have been worthy with a pair of fairly clean KCS units, but decided to go with the southbound, which was well lit, and which I wanted to follow to Westville. Ill get more chances at the bridge shot. |

Description: |
The 262 train gets some speed up as it rolls through the curve, and starts south. He wont gain a lot of speed right away, and Ill get several shots in the next couple of miles. |

Eight units!! |
Description: |
When I got to Watts, the 262 was working at the south end, but was going to hold for a northbound. I went to Westville, thinking that would be the northbound with CP 7030 on it. I was correct, and a few minutes later, I heard the dispatcher telling a 261 his work at Watts. Here he is, eight units and 60 cars. The decal for the Strathconas can be seen on the nose of the third unit. Well look at that in more detail shortly. |
