Later that day
Title:  Later that day
Description:  After a Subway meatball marinara, I heard a horn, announcing a northbound. I went up into town, getting ahead of the train as it approached Lincoln Av on the siding. Must be a meet. Well, there was to be one, but the southbound particiipant wasnt making good progress, so the meet was moved to Gentry. Here we see the northbound waiting in the siding while the dispatcher decides what to do.

Title:  Late afternoon glint
Description:  I heard a horn and beat it into town, catching this 100 car empty grain move going north. Should have gone farther up to Davidson Rd, the light would have been better.
