| We're at River Junction, MP128 on the UP (ex MP) Sedalia Sub, about 2.5 miles west of the Missouri state capital of Jefferson City. The eastbound Ann Rutledge (tr 413) has crossed from track 2 to number 1 and stopped to allow the Missouri Mule (train 311, shown here) go by on its way to KC. 314 will now back 200 yards or so and cross back to track 1 before proceeding into the Jeff City station for its stop. The silhouette to the right is the train's conductor, who will observe ther reverse movement. |
