Northbound start
Title:  Northbound start
Description:  Sometimes what I expect will be a chase in one direction, turns out to be the opposite. I was coming back from picking up pool chemicals, and heard a horn. I gave chase, beating this empty crude oil train to Gentry. When I got there, I noticed the switch lined for the siding. Looks like a meet is imminent. The oil train, five units up front, has pulled partly into the siding as it waits for what will be a southbound oil train.
