I only caught one train......
Title:  I only caught one train......
Description:  Having seen two trains on ATCS, on the BNSF Hannibal sub, I headed out with the hope of catching both.....but it did not happen. Was about 3/4 of a mile short of the first one (which was more interesting), as it had a pumpkin, Ferromex, and a WAMX on it. So had to wait for this mixed train, just before the showers started!

PSR moment.....
Title:  PSR moment.....
Description:  Took this one along time to come out of Jefferson City. Seems one of the units was low on fuel, so they shut that one down. Running 3x2x2, empty, this one is now on the Sedalia sub, and would eventually hold the main further up the line, so an eastbound Amtrak could take a side. This is my first in person PSR train.

Shortly, this arrives. His parting comment - "Wish you were here"!!!!!
