Last shot |
| Description: |
After the lite power set dropped the dodger power at Watts, the last shot I got was crossing the Illinois River north of town, one of the more scenic places on the line. |

Shorter consist |
| Description: |
The lite power move is now three units shorter, having dropped off the three dodger units at Watts. CP 9725 now brings up the rear, an appropriate contrast to the leader. |

Dodger power |
| Description: |
The last three units of the move were a set of four axle power for the Watts based dodger. I got them on the bridge over Baron Creek. |

Short trip, long wait |
| Description: |
I heard a horn as we came back from lunch, and took off into town, expecting to chase a northbound. That guess was correct; what I didnt know was there was a southbound coal train holding the main. By the time I got it together, I had missed both trains at Siloam. I didnt want to be out too long, so went to Gentry to get the northbound. I got ahead, and climbed the embankment to the Ark 12 overpass, and waited...and waited...and waited. I figure either he was holding south of town to meet a southbound-KCS does this so not to block crossings-or he was picking up DPUs from the Flint Creek Spur. I was about to give up on the effort after about 30 minutes in 95 degrees, when I heard a horn to the south, and shortly after saw a column of smoke as the train pulled away from the spur, about a mile to the south. Here he is, four original units, and three picked up off the spur, with 115 empty oil cans. |
