Unusual DPU |
Description: |
We caught a southbound grain train while out and about today-see the notes on the head end. On the rear of this 98 car train was a DPU, not unusual, most of these trains have them. What was unusual is the BNSF power making it up. These trains almost always have KCS power fore and aft. So this was different. |

Just the right moment |
Description: |
We were out for a ride today. When headed north, well cross the tracks at Davidson Rd on the way toward Gentry, since signal 226-5 is just south of the crossing. Today when we went across, it was green. I swung back around to catch this southbound 98 car grain train behind an original SD 70ACe repaint. KCS and CP just announced a merger. Get these while you can, before they go the same way all those ATSF warbonnets went after the BNSF merger. |

Two today |
Description: |
On return from our short day trip, we were coming back down Lincoln, when I looked over and saw a northbound just getting to Lake Frances Rd. I did a quick flip, and was able to beat him to Tahlequah St. A pair of UP units, and one BNSF lead 125 empty AEPX cars. |

Dark side M train |
Description: |
I had gotten this train at Gentry, but was not able to beat him to the Davidson Road crossing, so wound up with this dark side view, nicely nose lit, of the 92 car M train, behind an international set of power. |

Rolling up to the team track |
Description: |
I was heading out to Wal Mart for a grocery pick up-I have not been in the store in over a year, we let them bring the stuff out to the car-and just as I was getting to Lake Frances Drive, I looked over to see a northbound cresting the grade up from Watts. I knew if I hustled, I could get him at one of several locations in town. I opted for the team track area, since it was currently unoccupied by set out gons from MOW projects, and the light was right for a 1000 shot. Hes snaking through the curve past Main St and the old station with 100 empty grain hoppers, approaching Lincoln Av. |

Big tree |
Description: |
I was out dropping recyclables the other day, and went up to Davidson Rd to see if the signal was lit. Sure enough, flashing yellow. I waited, which yielded this shot of a southbound TXUX train passing the big bare tree in the adjacent field. In another couple of weeks, the leaves will be out, green in contrast to all the different colors of the trains. |

Rolling to a meet |
Description: |
It was 80 degrees last Friday, and I was out washing the car when I heard a northbound blowing for State Line Rd as he worked up from Watts. I finished up what I was doing and headed out, to find him into the siding, but holding. I went up into town to hopefully catch the meet. The northbound didnt pull up far enough to get the shot, but I did get the southbound M train splitting the signals at Tahlequah St, rolling 75 cars toward Shreveport |

Rolling to a meet |
Description: |
I had gone up to the recycle station to do my bit to save the planet, when I saw a set of headlights to the north as I crossed Lincoln Av. A closer look showed that the train was stopped up near Country Club, which meant he was waiting north of town, so as not to block crossings while he waited for the northbound to get in range. I camped out at Tahlequah St; ten minutes later, heres the southbound TXUX train splitting the signal as it holds the main, rolling 125 cars of Wyoming black diamonds to Texas. |

Mission accomplished. |
Description: |
The reason for the slowdown north of town appears on the siding as the coal train continues south on a clear board at South Siloam. The meet is completed, and the empty grain trains power is now slowly moving to the north end of the siding as he anticipates the signal clearing up. |

Lucky catch |
Description: |
We were coming back from Rogers last week, and had turned south on Ark 59 for the last leg to home, when I saw a train sitting, waiting for a meet. I swung around onto Lake Frances Rd, and checked out the situation. The home signal for the south end of the siding lit just as I crossed the tracks, so I set up quickly. Almost immediately this northbound AEPX empty rolled up. |

Sometimes youre just out when things get busy. After I got the oil train and grain train at Gentry, I figured the day was probably done. So it was a pleasant surprise to find the southbound just getting to Siloam as I rolled over the Cheri Whitlock bridge. The grain train pulled to the south end of the main, and this northbound empty grain train rolled into the picture. |

I was headed back home from a Wal Mart pick up this past Monday. The day had started out gray following rain overnight, but with promise of some clearing in the afternoon.Before the system moved off, there were some breaks in the clouds. One of those breaks was all of ten minutes, but this southbound oil train was just starting to pull during the sunny moment, Here it is approaching Lake Frances Rd as it heads south. |

We were coming back from Bentonville, taking the scenic route for a chage, which took us past the airport and into Gentry.

Meeting a coal train |
Description: |
I was headed home from a doctors appointment this momrning, and saw the coal train slowly working into the siding as I approached the crossing on Kenwood St. Catching the head end was not going to work, and I thought the meet would be imminent. I was right, and had taken up a position at Lake Frances Rd. The southbound 100 car grain train is passing the DPU on the empty TXUX coal train as it approaches CP South Siloam Springs. |

Through the signals |
Description: |
The southbound grain train rolls between the boards at CP South Siloam Springs as the coal train starts to move off the siding. The cars at right are in the siding of Pipelife Jetstream, which makes PVC pipe. They get switched by a Watts based local, most days in the morning |

Holding them back |
Description: |
The DPU on the rear of the grain train is a pair of KCSM GEs, going into dynamic braking to hold back the 100 loaded cars as they roll downhill to Watts. The coal train has cleared town, as we can see by the truck now on the Kenwood St crossing in the distance. Quiet returns to Siloam. |

Bare tree |
Description: |
One of he reasons I like this spot is that its good for a southbound almost alll the time, and there is that big tree in the adjacent field that makes a good photo prop. Now if I could just get the horses to come over when theres a train...maybe I need some of JJ Youngs inflatable cows. |
