Title:  CP 8917, solo head end motor on 248
Description:  A sister is mid-train, typical of the blah power I seem to always encounter on other trains during Holiday Train chases. I never once, for example, caught something led by a SOO SD60 or ICE SD40-2 back when those things existed.

Closer than I thought
Title:  Closer than I thought
Description:  Seeing the signal with a restricting indication, I hustled down to Bunch to see if I could get the northbound. He was just coming over the crossing as I got to this spot. A Texas Utilities empty train rolls north. I had hoped to get the southbound here, but the weeds have overtaken the scene, and theres no shot at the moment, though that will probably change as winter draws on.
