Rolling to a meet
Title:  Rolling to a meet
Description:  The northbound Q train is holding the main as the grain train slowly rolls down the siding, its headlight reflecting off the Q trains tank cars. Once in the clear, the Q train will start north. The grain train will hold here for a second northbound, which I could hear blowing for a crossing just to the south.

The wait begins
Title:  The wait begins
Description:  The grain train has dimmed his headlight now that hes stopped. Hell watch the rest of the Q train depart, then wait for the next northbound, which we can already hear apporaching.

Caught up, the chase is on
Title:  Caught up, the chase is on
Description:  I heard this southbound from the house, and took off, running down Ark 59 and US 62 into Westville. I got to the crossing there just in time to see the headlights approaching through town. I dumped the car in the lot on the west side of the tracks, and was able to get this wedge shot of a 100 car southbound grain train, with a northern visitor. Someone must have gotten their Canadian roads mixed up, so we have a CN unit instead of CP trailing. Didnt get the memo, I guess.
