Second southbound
Title:  Second southbound
Description:  I broke off the chase of the grain train, since it was now getting darker and the prospects of getting a lit shot were virtually nil. As I neared Watts, heres another headlight. Now its the southbound Q train. I chased down to the big curve near Chewie Rd and shot him thorugh the curve there.

Some days there just aint much
Title:  Some days there just aint much
Description:  Many of my chases start with a visit to the transfer station in town, when I go up to drop recycling. I usually wait til the bins are way too full, so it takes a while. A lot of the time, I catch something while m there, or shortly after. Today, no such luck. After riding up and down through town, finally a clear at North Siloam Springs. It turned out to be this four unit lite power set heading north. Oh well. No big time railroading today.
