Back on Tuesday the 7th of July, while I was at work my buddy Chris messaged me saying I needed to hang around Independence after I got off work to film a train that was due soon.  So after I got off work, I went to a crossing off Noland Road less than a mile from where I work.

It didn't take too long for the first train to go by, not the one I was after, but a neat one nonetheless.  It was a short Missouri & Northern Arkansas local lead by a former UP SD40M-2 that was rebuilt from and old SD45 for the Southern Pacific.  The second unit, and SD40-2 is in their new scheme, the orange, yellow and black Genesee and Wyoming scheme.

After the local, it wasn't too long till the target train came through.  The train and power itself wasn't why it was my target, it's who was on board at the time.  Ryan is someone I know from Facebook who works for the railroad was the conductor on the train.  He's pretty cool, if he knows you and if your there shooting film or taking pics, he'll usually give you a decent "show"  However, I wasn't where he was expecting me to be, so nothing really happens.  Although the lead SD70M does have a bit of toilet paper hanging off the side rails.

That's it for now, stay tuned, bunch more to come!
