Last light
Title:  Last light
Description:  While the time between September and April has the best lighting, with the low sun angle, it also has some short days from November to February. That makes for some shots that just miss being nicely lit, like this shot of Q KCNL at Gravette. Missed it by that much, in the words of Maxwell Smart. Today's effort has 48 freight, 4 stack platforms, 10 auto racks, and 12 articulated auto racks.

Pretty spot
Title:  Pretty spot
Description:  This location, where the KCS crosses Kings Highway at the far south end of Noel, is a scenic spot thats easy to reach. Climbing over the broken up concrete and downed trees that are along the creek is a bit of a challenge, especially if youre intent on chasing south, as well see in the next shot. The northbound grain train Id been chasing went in the siding here to meet this train.

Reflections
Title:  Reflections
Description:  If the water level is good, and its not moving too fast, this is a great spot for a reflection shot, as the southbound Q train shows here, its power mirrored in the slow moving stream.

This is what happens
Title:  This is what happens
Description:  When you have too many obstacles to get past from your previous location, and cant get a good lead on the train. This was an out the window grab shot of the southbound Q train as it approached the Ark 59 overpass just north of Sulphur Springs. Its a much nicer shot if youre standing on the bridge!!

Empty coal
Title:  Empty coal
Description:  Sometimes I can hear trains all the way from Watts, though usually not til they get closer to me in Siloam Springs. I heard what sounded like a northbound climbing the hill, but a quick ride around town yielded no train. I headed up to Davidson Rd to see what was going on, and found a southbound oil train on the crossing. I made a quick turn, and beat it for Watts. The oil train had gone through, no surprise there, but had met this coal train there. I caught it on the Illinois River bridge in cruddy light. Still a pretty shot, though.

Caught up
Title:  Caught up
Description:  I ran to catch the coal train one more time, mostly to get the engine numbers, since there were a lot of them, a total of six heading north. KCS must have been using this train to balance power. Typically, there are not nearly this many units on one train.
