I ran down to the station to catch the 262 as it went past. Id leave him here, and follow the empty AEPX train north, but not before more action unfolded. |

Off the bridge |
| Description: |
I knew Id have a race to beat the 262 to Watts, but the railfan gods were with me, and I made all the lights, beating him with enough time to set up in the driveway of an old roadhouse on US 59 for this shot of the train coming off the Illinois River bridge |
