Description: |
Well, when you're 7 hours and 20 minutes late, who cares about a 5 minute smoke stop (which some people were itching for). Bill I belive was a former SP Conductor. |

New Paint |
Description: |
This is a fairly fresh painted unit out of North Little Rock, AR on April 13, 2005. It is former DRGW 5503 which I have shots of before it was repainted. It's always a little sad to see one more part of a fallen flag fall further. |

Engineer Ricky |
Description: |
I took this photo of Engineer Ricky Williams after we talked for a little while, then I gave him the web address to my site, telling him to look for his photo, later on. You can see a little bit of red reflective stripe peeking through the blue paint right under the cab window, today's biggest reminder of Phase III on the P42's. |

Northbound Intermodal With UP 1982 Mo-Pac Heritage Locomotive |
Description: |
This was my first look at her leading UP Train IHOYC 20, from Houston, Texas to Yard Center, Illinois. This was it's first trip through here, the crew honked at me twice. Notice the engineer's side ditch light was out. They had just worked on it in Little Rock according Jim Haguewood, Site Contributor who works on the service tracks as he was cleaning the unit's cab. This was the unit's first run through here. I caught it at 23:37C. |

Northbound Manifest Making Pick Ups With an Ex-Conrail |
Description: |
Still has her maker lights! I was with a future hardcore railfan from the railroad museum, Parker Thurman, he's 10. Right before this shot, a cop came up and told us to back up...as you can see were plenty far back, so I moved back about 4 inches, just to make him happy, at least he left me alone in time to get this shot, dumb cop. |

Southbound UP Intermodal Train - UP 1982 |

The unit was on UP Train ZYCHOB 22, a Yard Center, IL to Houston, TX Intermodal. About to pass under the MO Highway 25 Overpass, 1982 is slowing for the 20 MPH curve in town on the Old Cotton Belt. After this I went to sophomore year classes at Malden High School. Time flies. |

She was assigned on train ZDUMQ 27, an Intermodal Freight from Dupo, Illinois to Mesquite, Texas. UP has impressed me again. These Heritage Locomotives are nifty. At the time, this was as far south as the MKT "Katy" Locomotive had ever been. |
