New power
Title:  New power
Description:  They must have gotten it from Athearn, the undecorated model. KCS received most of its Belles in primer-they run just as well, regardless of how theyre painted, right??-and had them painted as they had time. Some went quite a while in the primer scheme, most were painted fairly quickly. We see 4696 trailing a lite power move, still in its skivvies.

Northbound Q
Title:  Northbound Q
Description:  I caught the northbound at the Ark 59B crossing up by Little Debbie, with a KCSM leader. I went downtown to try to get the head end of the grain train passing the rear of the Q train, but too many people who cant get out of their own way blocked me. Oh, well....
