Finally, a road train |
| Description: |
After fiddling around with the local for a while, I decided to check out the line south to Siloam Springs, to see if there were any places with decent color. Not really, but when I got to Davidson Road at MP 227, the signal there was red, which usually means a northbound in the mix. As I contemplated that possibility, I heard a northbound call the signal at North Siloam Springs. The shot at Davdison wasnt so hot, so I got him off the Ark 12 overpass. |

The 262s DPU rolls south past the head end of the empty TXUX train, right into the sun. Its a difficult time of day to make this shot, but it was really the only angle available in the time I had to get from Davidson Rd down to Tahlequah St. So much for mid day!! |

Northbound to a meet. |
| Description: |
I heard this northbound calling signals as it approached Stilwell, and was able to get to the station to catch it passing in a going away shot. The actual meet was on the other end of the building. Would have been a nice catch, but these things are hard to predict at times. A battered KCSM GE trails. |

Not as much color as I expected |
| Description: |
Usually, the trees near a river or lake hold their leaves longer than elsewhere, due to the proximity of a good water source. Not here, apprently. Must be a northeast thing. The northbound 181 rolls its 27 autos, one of them articulated, and 82 grain hoppers north across the Illinois River. |

I was afraid this view from the Ark 59 overpass would have no color in it whatsoever., but was pleasantly surprised to find there was still a little bit left, and enough light to make for a passably decent photo. Hes stop just north of here, depriving me of a shot near Noel along the creek there. |

Rolling into the shadow |
| Description: |
In this case, its the shadow of the bridge Im standing on, tne US 59 overpass at the south end of town. Were looking at 125 cars of a TXUX coal train headed for Texas. The red of the northbound home signal for CP South Stilwell adds a punch of color to the trees. |

Restricting |
| Description: |
I chased down to Cave Springs, since there was still enough daylight on this first day of standard time. I had beaten the coal train here, despite some slowpokes along the way. I checked the northbound home signal, finding it was showing a restricting indication, and the switch was lined for the siding. Cool, a northbound in the picture. I grabbed a shot of the board, and headed for Bunch, hoping to intercept the northbound there. |

Lite power |
| Description: |
I was hoping for a full sized freight here, but instead was treated to four units of a lite power move. Too bad, this is a nice spot to catch a long train. The light was starting to go anyway... |

| Title: |
Back at the switch |
| Description: |
The coal train has arrived at the Cave Springs siding, and is holding the main in the distance. The dispatcher is going to run the lite power through the siding, an easier, and faster move, than having the 125 cars of coal taking both switches at 15 MPh for the entire length of the train. Now that the switch is lined for the lite power move at both ends, the signal displays a medium clear. Hell have a high green at the other end. |

The lite power move meets the coal train as the conductor rolls the four units by. Now that the lite power is in the clear, the dispatcher will normal the switch, and the coal train will resume his trek south. |
