Backing onto the train |

The dodger that originates in Watts has just set off a cut of gons onto the siding at Siloam Springs, and is now backing onto his train. Once coupled up, hell back down to work Pipelife for a while, before heading up to Decatur. |

Its twilight time |
| Description: |
The Dodger works under the US 412 overpass as the sun gets low, making it a challenge to get all the power in the light. But what a golden glow!! |

How it starts |
| Description: |
I went up to dump recycling, and saw a headlight as i was crossing the tracks at Lincoln Av. It was the dodger, L 102, rolling south with 25 cars. I got him at the crossing, and went to drop my plastic, glass and paper. |

Sneaking up |
| Description: |
As the dodger puts his train into the yard, the southbound Q train rolls down the main behind him. The Q train will have a surprise, which well see once the dodger clears, and the Q train fixes a software problem on the lead unit. Remember when fixing a diesel issue was just resetting a relay?? |
