As always, it starts with a horn |
| Description: |
We had gotten about 7" of snow the day prior to this shot. We heard a horn from a northbound climbing up from Watts, and decided since it was in the mid 30s and climbing, wed go out and get some snow shots. The horn turned out to be this 261 train with 49 cars, which we caught up to at the Siloam Springs team track. The Powell feed mill looms in the distance. |

Rolling to a meet |
| Description: |
We knew we would not catch the 261 at Dorsey, so went on up to Gravette, only to see this southbound TXUX train coming at us as we crossed the tracks to set up, seen here with downtown Gravette in the distance. This would be the focus of the remaining activity this day. |

Snowy field |

The climb up to Decatur is steep, the grade actually cresting near MP 219, just to the south. We took advantage of the trains slow progress to get this snowy shot from a crossing just south of town, near the MP 218.4 defect detector. |

Into the sun |

The ahot of the 181 was almost directly into the sun. We though about following it north for a while, as it would have been nice to get the Belle leader in the snow, but the light was just totally wrong-and the coal train leader was clean. |

Took a while |
| Description: |
After the meet with the 181, it took us a while to catch back up to the coal train, which had a good roll once he cleared the siding at Siloam. Driving through Siloam can be a real chase killer due to the traffic and lights. He beat us to Westville, so our next shot wasnt til here at Baron, where the train is passing an old church. |

Passing the automatic |

The coal train passes the automatic at MP 250. Even this late in the day, the sun still has not come around to the west side of the tracks, though the brightness of the BNSF nose makes for a nice contrast with the shadow side of the train. |
