Stone |
| Description: |
Usually the province of third tier power-and this train is not immune from that, as you can see by the SD50-sometimes they get better than their station would merit, such as this UP road unit that must have been hijacked off something more important. Approaching Davidson Rd under a cloud. |

Canned |
| Description: |
The southbound stone train seen at Gentry is in the siding at Siloam Springs. It has cut the train for the crossings, so is not going anywhere soon. At least the light is better today. |

Surprise |
| Description: |
I went back up to the north end of the siding, thinking the coal train would be underway momentarily, only to find the conductor cutting the train at the SR 51 crossing. Thats not good. Theyll be stuck here a while. Another promising chase thwarted by an outlawing crew. Not so fast. As I was heading up to the north end of town to consider my options, I saw a headlight in the distance. It turned out to be this southbound grain move, led by a pair of UP units. |

Rolling meet |
| Description: |
Though not the way youd expect. The grain train makes its way south on the main, while the coal train, which had cut at the crossing, now backs down to reconnect. Both sets of power moving the same direction. Not your typical meet. |
