3 T6s on the hill |
Description: |
Yah, it was raining, and the light stinks. But when was the last time you saw 3 T6s in MU struggling on wet rail? Back in 'the day', A&M sent T6s over the river to do a headlight meet with the SB Ft Smith road train. |

The meet |
Description: |
A&M Ft Smith turn used to meet the Ft Smith switch job on the north side of Van Buren. On a rainy cold April day, it took 3 T6s to haul the northbound up the hill to the meet. Here, The road job has the northbounds, and the switchers are pulling hard to clear with the southbound freight. |

RC switching |
Description: |
A&M reportedly helped develop a remote control unit that interfaced through the MU, and could be moved to different units. The operator is off to the left, and the RC unit can be seen on the back end of 01. |
