Filmed 04/01, 02/18 And not only was this April Fools day, it was also Easter. So chew on all that. :D Anyway, first train was the coil steel trains that KCS started running again after a two or three year absence. These trains aren't generally very long, but they are extremely heavy. Often they will have a DPU or two on them. But the one was shorter than usual and just had the two units up front. Second train was the next day right after I got off work. Actually saw it sitting on the main along !-70 coming home from work, so I whipped into Grain Valley to see where the power was. It was before the siding on the east end of town. All its lights were on, so no telling when it would go. Not long I assumed. So I hurried up and got back to Blue Springs. I was about to turn on the shower when I heard the horn a mile to the east. Good timing or I'd have missed it. As cold as it looks in these clips, it really wasn't all that bad, low 30s. So I managed to not freeze to death. Still have a couple more to post from a month or so ago. Probably be next week. This Sunday I'll have either the final version of the promo video from last weekend, or part two of the Ops at Jon Percy's. This week is looking to be hectic, so I'm not sure whats going to happen yet. But like always, thanks for watching and see you next time!
