On the creek |
| Description: |
The DPU crosses Baron Creek, in another shot taken from the car window. I love driving the Dodge, but getting in and out of the low slung car quickly is now a challenge for my six foot, 240 pound body with bad ankles and stiff joints. Sometimes I yield to the effects of advancing decrepitude. Its now late enough in the year that the sun does not come around to the west side of the bridge til very late in the day, and then the shadows of twilight are taking over. |

| Title: |
DPUs, finally |
| Description: |
I had been trying to get some good shots of the head end, and knew if I waited for the DPU at Westville, the shot at Baron was in question. After the signal shot, the only shot to do on the creek, and here at CR E 754 was the DPU. It was getting toward 1400, and I wanted to get heading back, since we had to go to Coweta OK for my grandsons football game. Notable, is the three unit set of DPU's, all BNSF. Usually there are a couple of KCS units added at Pittsburg. |
