Northbound Grain Train
Title:  Northbound Grain Train
Description:  Wow, UP is actually going to run a northbound grain train up the De Soto Sub. I got up close and personal with this train, when the train came around the curve I walked towards the yellow line, when I looked at the train again I thought, "Oh shit, I'd better back up, he's on Main Track 1 and going up the De Soto!" The engineer honked twice and the crew waved, because we still do that here.
