Title: |
A hundred feet more |
Description: |
This is one of those "close but no cigar" shots. The southbound KCS train didnt quite make it out of the shadows to have the meet in the sun. If the northbound had gone a hundred feet less, and the southbound 100 feet more, it would have been killer. Oh well.... |

Lined and locked |
Description: |
A southbound Q train rolls past the HJ Baker feed mill in Westville, its siding switch lined and locked, as seen by the blade on the switch stand. A solo SD 70ACe has 59 freight and 12 stack platforms, with KCS 4146 spliced between the two types of cars as a mid train DPU. |

Title: |
Got the board |
Description: |
The Q train now has the signal to continue south, as the coal train has cleared. This was an efficient meet. Nobody stopped rolling, no delay. The way it should be. |
