Filmed 06/05/17 Monday morning when I was at work, I heard this train go by but there was no way for me to see it, to even know what it was. I just knew the horn didn't sound like the typical KCS freight horns. Then I start seeing Facebook posts with this train. Didn't take long to figure out that's what I heard go through town, in this case, Oak Grove where I work. I later get home, got cleaned up, and left to go get laundry done. So as soon as I get the clothes in the washer, Chris called me saying to get to the tracks as soon as I could. This train was inbound 30 miles to the east in Higgensville, MO. I was on the other end of town and didn't have my camera. So I left for home as quick as possible (lots of traffic this time of day), got my camera and made it to the 10th street crossing with about 10 minutes to spare. The sun was in the perfect position and the surrounds made for the perfect backdrop. About the only thing that really gives it away as a modern image is the ditchlights. Otherwise it looks like an image right out of the "40s. and '50s. So anyway, none of this was planned out, it just kinda happened.and saved me from having to dig through old archived clips to make today's upload. Instead, this one blew through town. That's it for now, short and sweet today. I'll have part 2 of John Acheson's ops session this coming Sunday. So, till next time, see you later!
