Title:
The dodger is back
Description:
After chasing the 262 down to Westville, I headed back to Watts, thinking Id find the 261 still working there. As I approached the south end of the yard, I saw a headlight in the distance. As I got up to the yard office, it turned out to the the dodger returning to the yard from its days work. The 261 had a pick up and set out, but must have worked quickly, leaving not long after I started following the 262, since hed have to have met the dodger at Siloam. The dodger was a good looking train, three baby Belles and 42 cars. I had hoped to chase the 261 north, but the Strathcona unit was not leading, and I had gotten some good shots of the engine and the coat of arms, so not a total loss. I got four trains for the afternoon, so a good day.

Title:
In the plant
Description:
We'd just shot an empty coal train, and the dodger had cleared up in the Little Debbie plant. This is a close up of the power inside the gate. Dont see any cars. The crew must have finished, and are now going for some Oatmeal Creme Pies...
