By the old switchstand
Title:  By the old switchstand
Description:  The 2816 rolls through Gravette, past a switchstand thats probably as old as the steamer itself, a relic from when there was a lumber yard here. As I was taking this shot, one of the Fs was throwing an alarm. Theyd stop here about ten minutes to solve the problem, which seemed to work, since it didnt recur after this.

Wider view
Title:  Wider view
Description:  A wider view shows the Fs trailing the 2816 as the train approaches downtown Decatur. This would be the last time I caught him til Sallisaw. The train had been delayed enough that it was now getting into shift change time; there are several Simmons Foods chicken plants in the area, and everyone was getting out of work. I missed the light at the big plant between here and Gentry, then got stuck at the light there for a couple of changes. I was able to get within sight of the train at Siloam, but had to stop at the house to pick up my wife and restock sodas. By the time we were on our way, we missed him at Westville OK, and boogied for Sallisaw. Too bad, there were spots I wanted to shoot between Watts and Westville that would have been sweet, even in the crappy weather.

Last pass
Title:  Last pass
Description:  We beat a hasty path down to Panama, about 25 miles from Sallisaw, to get a shot of the train there before the light went. He passed us at speed, about 40 MPH, making a good show of it as he went by.

Protect power #2
Title:  Protect power #2
Description:  The classic set of protection power was this pair of FP 9s. Theyd had some issues on the southbound trip, so the SD 70 was added for the return to Canada. They were running when they went past.

Straight at you
Title:  Straight at you
Description:  After Goodman, I took off, but even a five speed didnt let me catch up by McElhany, so I beat it up onto I 49 to the Gateway exit, knowing there was a long tangent that might make an interesting photo. I really wanted to get the shot from the shoulder of I 49, but standing on an interstate highway for a long period was going to get me unwanted attention from the state troopers, so nixed that. Good thing-there was a hi-rail working, and didnt give up his track and time right away, so waited 45 minutes here. Still, a good shot.

Waiting on the freight
Title:  Waiting on the freight
Description:  While the 2816 was the star of the show today, its important to remember that CPKC still had a railroad to run. Here the steamer is holding at the north end of Watts siding for a southbound TXUX coal train, which will arrive about ten minutes hence behind a BNSF/CP/KCS power set.

Outstanding in the field
Title:  Outstanding in the field
Description:  But, unlike a recent shot, no cows today. Still, a pretty view as the Empress approaches the Ark 59S crossing in Gentry. Id not get another shot at him til Gravette, due to idiots pacing the engine along Ark 59, which runs adjacent to the tracks for the six miles to Decatur. I get the appeal of the moving parts of a steam engine at speed, but get 60 seconds of the action, then move on so youre not holding up a couple dozen other fans who want to get ahead of the train, not to mention disinterested locals who just want to go about their day without being caught up in a lot of unnecessary congestion.

Title:  By the team track
Description:  The train passes the team track at Gravette, roughly where the station site was. Normally, Id shoot a northbound at Wolf Creek, between North Dorsey and Gravette-its a pretty shot, and easy to get to-but for the idiot pacers between Gentry and Decatur, and also the fact that the sun angle at Wolf Creek would be all wrong. It really doesnt become a sweet shot til mid afternoon. So, Gravette.
