Out of the curve |

The Q train swings around the curve, completing the "S" as it rolls into a tangent for a short stretch. Its been several years since the US 59 project cleared out the trees here, and new ones are starting to obstruct the view. |

Rolling past |
Description: |
After getting the shot of the leader going past the signals, I ran to get it meeting the power on the Q train. He was a bit faster than me, and I didnt get the power passing power shot I wanted. This is still a pretty good action shot, though, of the Q train conductor giving the northbound a roll by. |

In the shade |
Description: |
After shooting the meet with the northbound oil train at Siloam, I took off, making good time through town-the biggest obstacle to chasing on this part of the Heavener Sub, getting through Siloam-and was able to beat the train to North Watts, but not far enough ahead to get the strarght on shot of him coming off the Illinois River bridge. I had to settle for this shot of him splitting the signals at CP North Watts. A decent shot in any event. The low sun of late fall means lots of shade here most of the day. |

The large building in the background is Pro Pak, a packaging operaton. It used to be Allen Canning, the packers of Popeye Spinach, now another corporate memory. |
