Waiting... |
| Description: |
I mentioned the dilemma of chasing the grain train to Westville for the hay field shot, and having decided against it, rather than miss the 261 heading north. I neednt have worried. Here he is, now shadowed in the trees at the north end of Watts siding, waiting for a southbound to pass on the main. Oh well... |

On the bridge |
| Description: |
Now having made its meet, the 261 rolls north as the light goes, seen here on the Illinois River bridge north of Watts. Hell be into the climb up to Siloam Springs shortly. The shadows will have taken over there by the time he crests the grade. I spent almost three hours with these three trains, and never got any farther away than MP 239, three miles south of the Watts yard. Some days are like that!! |

At the other end of town, the 261 was working, pulling up for headroom as he worked the yard with this interesting power set, |
