Bird Seed
Title:  Bird Seed
Description:  While some birds do eat gravel, this isn't a delivery as it's a BNSF ballast train sitting in a siding at Old Monroe MO. An ES44AC is on the other end- call me old, but I find it odd to see high horsepower units like this on a MOW train.

Title:  Storage Line at SEMO Port
Description:  A line of MRIX Geeps sit at SEMO Port on a Friday morning. While 8300 carries the road's red/blue colors, four others (8331, 8320, 8354, 8350) retain PAL silver and 4119 still has CNW paint. Although 8300 has seen recent use the other five geeps have been sidelined at SEMO Port for several years.

Pushing Cars on the OVRR
Title:  Pushing Cars on the OVRR
Description:  Ozark Valley GP7U 1306 pushes a string of four cars over Liberty Street to the KCS interchange. The shortline runs a stretch of former KCS (ICG, GM&O, Alton) trackage to the city's industrial park on its southwest side. It started operations in 2007 and although it owns the entire Fulton Branch as well as rights on an industrial spur on the town's northeast corner, it spends almost all of its time working the industrial park. The Fulton branch does not appear to have seen a train south of Auxvasse since acquired by OVRR.
