Finally, here he comes |
| Description: |
I had gone up to dump recycling, but saw nothing, and finally decided to do a quick grocery trip. As I was on my way back to the house, the gates were down at Kenwood St. Figures, and I have ice cream in the car. I did a quick drop at home, and took off after the train. He was in Gentry when I caught him, so I ran up to Decatur to get the shot at the station and signal. He had a stop and proceed at 219-1, which meant a slow roll into town here. Finally, he rolls around the curve toward the station. |

Taking the signal |
| Description: |
The Q train takes the clear signal at 216-8. Hell get a clear shot through Dorsey, and just barely beat me into Gravette, six miles north. Unfortunately, that will be the closest I get to another shot today. |
