Always in the wrong place
Title:  Always in the wrong place
Description:  I had chased H SHKC up from Stilwell to Watts, where he was doing yard work. I figured that could take a while, and Id been out a couple of hours, so headed for home. I got to the crossing just north of the bridge when I heard a horn. I looked over to see the Q train headed south. Unfortunately, he was too far along for me to come around and set up a shot on the Illinois River, so took this grab shot from the car window. Cant win em all!!

DPUs and a close call
Title:  DPUs and a close call
Description:  The DPU on the southbound train rolls past Tahlequah St. The car in the foreground came up quick just as the head end was getting to the crossing. I was afraid for a moment I was going to have to make a run for it. He stopped in time, but not by much.
