After the better part of an hour, finally this southbound Texas Gulf Utilities train showed, seen here coming off the Illinois River bridge, approaching the north switch for Watts siding. |

Round the curve |
| Description: |
I caught up with the coal train just south of the yard office, getting this shot of it coming around the sweeping curve at MP 237, the second unit, a Grinstein SD 70, now in view. Id see two of these now hard to find units today(actually three, the second coal train had one that had been repainted.) |

View from above |
| Description: |
I had enough time to get down toward MP 239, where there area couple of road cuts that were done when US 59 was widened to four lane several years ago. One of them isnt that hard to climb, and I can still move OK, mostly, for a 64 year old fat guy. So up I went, getting this shot from up above. |

Rolling by the mill |
| Description: |
A shot I like to do in Westville is at the HJ Baker feed mill downtown. The coal train passes the silos as it heads south. |
