CP #2246
Title:  CP #2246
Description:  CP #2246 is encroaching on the KCS' Southern Belle F9's and Rudy's "Holiday Express" territory as the GP20 brings the first ever CPKC "Holiday Train" into the southern states. Rudy and the F9's were constrained to Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas this year. Both trains were impressive in their own ways.

Finally
Title:  Finally
Description:  I had gone out to see the CPKC Holiday Train, the original plan was to pick it up at Noel, then follow it south til the light went. I got distracted along the way, first by a southbound grain move almost as soon as I left the house, then when I got to Decatur and the southbound signal was green at Roller Av. I decided to wait there, instead of working against the train, rather than risk missing it. Turned out the signal was for a southbound grain move that was working Georges Farms just to the north, and the Holiday Train was delayed at McElhany due to an incident requiring police involvement, and would be released around 1630. At 1715, it finally showed here, passing the stuffed and mounted F 7 here, also adorned with lights.

From the bridge, No 4
Title:  From the bridge, No 4
Description:  The reindeer has now reached the front of the engine, and the process will now repeat. He'll be rolling south once the 181 passes, which will happen in a moment. Ill head home and pick up my wife, and well watch it roll through Siloam Springs. I had originally hoped to catch the train in daylight, but seeing it in twilight and after dark was way better.
