A three unit DPU trails this TXUX train rolling south on the main. For a while, KCS would put their power about 85 cars deep, making a 2x2x1 power set. This one, the train only 119 cars vs the usual 125, had the DPUs all on the rear. |

Repaints |
| Description: |
A pair of units originally delivered in gray roll the H train south, about to pass under the new Cheri Whitlock Dr overpass. The second unit is on its second repaint, having began its career as a TFM unit, in gray. Morning shots here will have to be almost nose on-look at those power lines. |

Through the car window |
| Description: |
I was able to catch the rear end of the train at Westville, but not without some anxiety. Halfway from US 59 to the tracks, I caught up to a school bus, who was not in any hurry to get down the road, nor was the pick up behimd him. I was able to get a shot of the surprise, a Progress Rail SD 70AH T4 demonstrator. |
