Answer to the question
Title:  Answer to the question
Description:  Chasing a train through Siloam Springs is a challenge. Five traffic lights, and at least moderate traffic most of the time. Still, its usually the case I catch up to a southbound somewhere close to Watts, and right in Watts if theres a meet. I got down to Watts, and...nothing. No coal train, no northbound waiting, nothing. I ran down to Westville to see if hed really gotten away from me, but nope, no train. Finally, I decided maybe he had gotten by me, and I was going to make a run for Stilwell. I got most of the way to Westville, and here comes this northbound 261 train. OK, the coal train was still north of me, but where did he hide?? Must have been on the hill down into Watts, a strange place to hold up with a 17000 ton coal train. The 262 rolls past Chewie Rd behind a pair of dirty KCS units.

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.

Tickets
Title:  Tickets
Description:  Perhaps its the "Ticketmastering" of America, but it seems a lot of places have gone to a computer printed ticket, much unlike the train tickets of days past. Such are the tickets issued by the CVSR, these purchased at their station in Akron.

The DPU
Title:  The DPU
Description:  My wife likes NS units, largely for the herald with the horse. This train was unusual, in that we dont get a lot of horsies here, and hardly at all on coal trains. Its pulling away south of Decatur, passing the defect detector at MP 218.4
