Caught him  Contributor's Pick!       
I had just gotten home from recycling-right by the tracks-when I heard a horn. This is a running joke between my wife and me: we always seem to hear a train within five minutes of returning home, no matter where weve been, or if weve been following the tracks the whole time we were out. I dropped the bins in the garage and headed out, knowing from the direction of the horn that it was a northbound. As I crested the hill into town, I heard the detectorf at Davidson Rd go off, and knew I had to hurry. As it turned out the train was being run into the siding at Gentry, and was holding there. Oh, good, a meet, I thought. I went to Main St and shot the head end as it waited at the site of the old station. Thats Ark 12 in the distance, Well see some shots from there later in the set.
