Delayed chase
Title:  Delayed chase
Description:  I was dropping my recycling when a northbound empty coal train went past the dump. I was elbows deep in a bin of plastic and glass, and it was already 1515-they close at 1530-so I needed to get the task done. The coal train-led by a KCS unit and a BNSF Grinstein-was moving too fast for me to catch up, and I had things to do at home. After he went by, a track car got track and time to go to Gentry, then clear up by 1600, there was a southbound at Noel. I went to Gentry at 1600, no train, so worked north, finally catching him coming across Roller Av as I got into town.

Closer view
Title:  Closer view
Description:  One of the things I like to do is get some of the environment in a photo-lineside hardware, which is harder and harder to find, now that pole lines are largely a memory-buildings, and such. This old building is adjacent to the tracks just north of the overpass, and makes a nice prop. The M train rolls past, about to pass under Ark 12.

Feed mill
Title:  Feed mill
Description:  I dont usually get a shot of a train "downtown" as it were in Siloam; Im usually up at Davidson Rd, or at Tahlequah St, at the north end of the siding. Southbounds havea a good climb out of the Flint Creek valley, and I knew if I hustled, I could beat him to town for this shot of him rolling past the old feed mill adjacent to the tracks.

By the office
Title:  By the office
Description:  I dont usually do chases that go through Siloam Springs-I live there, most of my excursions begin and end there, and its a challenge to drive through(lots of lights and traffic), where the trains roll on. It was early enough in the day to stay the course on this M train, so I went with it. I didnt get down to Watts fast enough to get him coming off the Illinois River, but was able to beat him to the yard. The M train passes the yard office and customer Bakery Feeds non stop. The chase is once again on.

How now
Title:  How now
Description:  We had gone up to Gentry for breakfast, at Miss Marys Cafe, which has a view of the tracks. As we were leaving, a northbound empty train was slowly making his way up the siding. He was almost to the Ark 59B crossing when we caught him, along with some local bovines, who appeared more interested in me than the train.
