Tough shot |
| Description: |
Gravette can be a challenge, especially late in the afternoon. There is an open area to the west of the tracks where they go through downtown, but shrubbery and trees have made it impossible to get a clear shot of more than two units. I got this from the embankment leading to the Ark 72 overpass, just catching the light right on this northbound 61 car grain train. |

Visitor from the east |
| Description: |
No, not the Magi, just an engine with a horse on it. An NS SD70ACe trails this southbound GEMX coal train, pushing a Progress Rail lease unit and a home road SD, and 115 cars south toward Shreveport. |

Almost there |
| Description: |
The grain train is almost to the AR 12 overpass, and the H train is almost by the south end of the siding. It will be a few minutes til the southbound gets lined out of the siding, though. |

Grain DPUs |
| Description: |
I was waiting for a coal train to come out of the Flint Creek power plant, and caught a southbound grain train while it was getting ready. This is the DPU, an SD 70 ACe and one of the new GEs. Looks like the SD has had some scorching issues. |

The DPU on the southbound grain train rolls away from me. Trailing unit is one of the new ET44AHs. I cant seem to get a good shot of them leading. |
