And back again
Title:  And back again
Description:  Every once in a while, I get a bonus. Todays was this southbound grain train coming off the Illinois River into Watts. He met the lite power move at Gentry, so I had a bit of a wait, but worth it for the shot. This train would meet a northbound here.

Fizzled out
Title:  Fizzled out
Description:  The southbound grain train waits for the meet at the south end of Watts. The northbound train would not show til the light was gone. I was hoping for a nice, sunlit shot as he came around the curve just south of the siding, and at the newly opened view near MP 239, but it was not to be. Such is railfanning.

While you wait
Title:  While you wait
Description:  As the dodger was working Pipelife, an often time consuming project with a lot of sitting and waiting time, I heard a horn off to the south. Must be another northbound. Three minutes later I got this 100 car northbound empty grain train passing the local behind an ES 44, and a repainted AC44CW, of which there seem to be more and more lately.

Stretchee out
Title:  Stretchee out
Description:  The northbound H train has pulled up past the yard office, its train stretched out down toward Bakery Feeds. Its only a 54 car train-with7 units, though I think sohe of them are power balancing-but looks a lot longer as it glints in the late afternoon sun.

Last light
Title:  Last light
Description:  While the time between September and April has the best lighting, with the low sun angle, it also has some short days from November to February. That makes for some shots that just miss being nicely lit, like this shot of Q KCNL at Gravette. Missed it by that much, in the words of Maxwell Smart. Today's effort has 48 freight, 4 stack platforms, 10 auto racks, and 12 articulated auto racks.

Pretty spot
Title:  Pretty spot
Description:  This location, where the KCS crosses Kings Highway at the far south end of Noel, is a scenic spot thats easy to reach. Climbing over the broken up concrete and downed trees that are along the creek is a bit of a challenge, especially if youre intent on chasing south, as well see in the next shot. The northbound grain train Id been chasing went in the siding here to meet this train.

Reflections
Title:  Reflections
Description:  If the water level is good, and its not moving too fast, this is a great spot for a reflection shot, as the southbound Q train shows here, its power mirrored in the slow moving stream.

This is what happens
Title:  This is what happens
Description:  When you have too many obstacles to get past from your previous location, and cant get a good lead on the train. This was an out the window grab shot of the southbound Q train as it approached the Ark 59 overpass just north of Sulphur Springs. Its a much nicer shot if youre standing on the bridge!!

Empty coal
Title:  Empty coal
Description:  Sometimes I can hear trains all the way from Watts, though usually not til they get closer to me in Siloam Springs. I heard what sounded like a northbound climbing the hill, but a quick ride around town yielded no train. I headed up to Davidson Rd to see what was going on, and found a southbound oil train on the crossing. I made a quick turn, and beat it for Watts. The oil train had gone through, no surprise there, but had met this coal train there. I caught it on the Illinois River bridge in cruddy light. Still a pretty shot, though.

Caught up
Title:  Caught up
Description:  I ran to catch the coal train one more time, mostly to get the engine numbers, since there were a lot of them, a total of six heading north. KCS must have been using this train to balance power. Typically, there are not nearly this many units on one train.
