KCS gray quad passes pair of Belle's (old and new)
Title:  KCS gray quad passes pair of Belle's (old and new)
Description:  In the middle of Shreveport along Interstate 49, there is a short stretch of KCS double track that gives me the illusion of being in a rural, mountain foothills area. In reality, the busy interstate is on the right and a somewhat rough residential neighborhood is to the photographer's left. "New meets old" as four gray KCS units pass by a freight led by two Retro Belles. The freight has just negotiated the sharp S curve.

Busy, busy
Title:  Busy, busy
Description:  Watts is sometimes a busy place. We see the dodger, L 102, at right, working the yard. What would usually be his third unit is peeking out from behind the relay case at right. At left is the southbound H train, holding the main as he waits his turn at the yard. Behind the dodger is the tail end of the northbound grain train, whose crew now cant get on because the H train is blocking the power. It was a mess.
