Grab shot
Title:  Grab shot
Description:  I grabbed this shot of a northbound train from the roadside as it approached Watts. Not the greatest shot, as I was more concerned with the southbound grain train it was meeting here.

Canned
Title:  Canned
Description:  After the empty coal train passed, I saw this train pushed back into Government Lead with a pair of AC4400s, including 4600 in Belle paint, one of a very few of the old GEs to be repainted. Sometimes the out and back chase means the "back" part of it is a deadhead move, as it were. So it was today, but at least for the extra miles to McElhany, there was this train, so it wasnt totally a bust.
