Grab shot |

Theres a spot south of Bridgeview on the Tri State where the IHB comes close to the highway. I happened on this IHB transfer as it passed that point. Traffic was slow, so was able to hold up the camera and fire away. |

Cant beat this!! |
| Description: |
I was driving through Panama City on my way back from Tampa, pulling up at the light outside the port. I looked over, and saw this-an Alco S type working inside the fence. Nice looking power, and I was fortunate to be there at the right moment. |

In the shade |
| Description: |
The Port of Panama City Alco sits in the shade during a break in the action. Who would have guessed an S 1 still in service at this date, though it looks like it may have been modified somewhere along the way. Note the typical Alco radiator intake has been blanked, and a new vent installed on the nose. |

This is my one and only shot of the TRRA, grabbed from my RV as we approached the Poplar St Bridge on I 55. One of these days, I need to spend some time in the St Louis area to see more of this road. |
