The final [KCS] Dodger
Title:  The final [KCS] Dodger
Description:  April 14, 2023. 9:24 AM. The Dodger waits in the hole for the all-clear after the grain passes. The Dodger is so named for this exact scenario - dodging the mainline trains and weaving its way into the sidings to bypass. In a little over 35 minutes, Kansas City Southern will be no more.

Goodbye, KCS.
Title:  Goodbye, KCS.
