KCSM 4751 north

Description:  KCSM 4751 and two Belles along I 49. At the time catching three Belles as solo power was something of a novelty, so this was quite a catch.

Meeting a coal train
Title:  Meeting a coal train
Description:  I was headed home from a doctors appointment this momrning, and saw the coal train slowly working into the siding as I approached the crossing on Kenwood St. Catching the head end was not going to work, and I thought the meet would be imminent. I was right, and had taken up a position at Lake Frances Rd. The southbound 100 car grain train is passing the DPU on the empty TXUX coal train as it approaches CP South Siloam Springs.
