Speeding toward Kenwood |
| Description: |
Somehow I beat the dodger to Kenwood St in Siloam Springs-no mean feat, the traffic in Siloam that time of day is awful, and the lights are not set up so you can make them-getting there just enough ahead of him to get this shot as he approached the crossing. The lighting was wonderful. |

Glint of last sun |
| Description: |
I was able to get just a little sun on the dodger as it passed Floyd Moore Rd north of Gentry, about the last place I could get any sun, catching the reflection of the last rays of the day. |

Local going away |
| Description: |
I had followed the southbound H train to Watts, and it was working the yard while the dodger got his train together. When he was ready, off he went. I was not in position to get him passing the DPU on the road train, but was able to get this shot from adjacent US 59 of the train and all five cars rolling north. Its a matter of seconds!! |
