View from the road |
| Description: |
The sign at left tells the story as 4014 is making its Claremore stop, south of downtown and the BNSF crossing, which will give me time to get there for that shot. This is taken from the car as I sat in traffic on OK 88, which runs parallel to the tracks from Inola. Its a good chase road for a freight, but when some idiot decides he wants to shoot video from his car as he paces, it makes for a lot of frustration. There was almost no police presence here, despite the crowd, and the road was gridlocked for a mile or two. The train drew large crowds in all the places it stopped, most of which in Oklahoma were relatively small, though Ft Gibson, where we picked up the chase on Saturday; Wagoner, and Nowata had good traffic and crowd control. |
