Coal train DPU
Title:  Coal train DPU
Description:  Actually the power that led on the way to Texas. The road power generally stays on in the position it was in when loaded, though sometimes the empty trains will have the power moved up front northbound. The original road power looks good splicing the signals at CP North Siloam Springs as it leaves the siding.

Catching up
Title:  Catching up
Description:  Wed gone to breakfast in Gentry, then over to OReilly to get yet another headlight, and visit with my son, who is tie manager of that store. As we were parting, we saw a train pull up into the siding. In short order, the dodger went south, and the chase was on. We caught theÝGPU south of Decatur, getting this grab shot from the car.

Going away
Title:  Going away
Description:  Not the first time Ive shot this unit, its one of two rolling away at Wolf Creek. Its mate is a Grinstein SD 70, always a good thing to see. There are some who dont especially like that scheme. Ive always thought it was elegant.
