| Description: |
I caught a southbound sand train as I was passing through Westville, but did not get ahead of him til Baron. This shot was seriously treed in til a few months ago, and you could barely see the signal. Now you can see all the way past the grade crossing. Good for photos, good for the folks crossing the tracks there. |

The sand train was rolling slowly into Stilwell, and I was able to get this across the road shot of him from the other side of US 59. |

I was able to catch the sand train again at another favorite spot, near MP 252. The shot is from the grade crossing here, and looks dramatic with a tele. |

Havent done this one in a while |
| Description: |
The shot on the curve at the far north end of Stilwell has become a challenge, due to the brush that has grown up along the tracks. Today it wasnt too bad, so I tried the shot. Those wings look good coming around the curve. |

Down on |
| Description: |
The sand train approaches the US 59 overpass at the south end of Stilwell. I have my northbound chase in hand, a 6 unit lite power move I will follow to Watts. Sometimes the chase is south!! |
