Off to a good start
Title:  Off to a good start
Description:  I had heard a northbound go up from the house, and after getting my cooler in order, I took off, though I knew it would be a chase to catch up. When I crossed the tracks at Davidson Rd, the signal was high green, so decided Id get the impending southbound instead. It turned out to be a good show, with an NS unit leading a TXUX coal train.
