Wet day at Dalby |
| Description: |
My friend and fellow RRPA contributor David Sommer was in town for a visit on his way to the west coast, and was hoping for some good KCS photos. The prize was a southbound road train with a KCS leader in good sun. So of course, it rained most of the first day he was here, and we saw only this northbound. An 89 car H train rolls past the signal at the south end of Dalby. |

Meeting the dodger |
| Description: |
The northbound H train rolls past the dodger, which is working Pipelife Jetstream, and is behind the road train. We had hoped the H train would be slow enough so that the dodger, which was backing cars into the pipe plant, would be side by side. Not to be. Meet shots are always a challenge, and timing is everything. Oh well... |

Why the grainer was waiting |
| Description: |
Soon a northbound appeared, with what has now become a typical mix of CP and KCS power. This train had 36 stack platforms and six articulated auto racks. In the old days-two months ago-this would have been the Q train. Now its the MMX-181, headed for Chicago. The grain train has cut the train at the crossing here where Ark 59B crosses the tracks, north of he Little Debbie plant. Hell be there a while. |
