Sorry if it's too big.

We like big pictures and we cannot lie, and all you other brothers cant deny. When a picture comes in with an itty bitty width, we say boo ya, we say in your face......
 
Today were set up at Junction City to wait for Train Q118 which runs from Vancouver BC to Harvey IL


 
Today I went out and followed FEC train 208.

We first catch him passing the North End Double Track at NE 123rd St in North Miami with a nice horn at the crossing. Earlier a car caught fire :( Luckily the driver had no injuries.

Note 'MFL', Meaning Miami-Fort Lauderdale as the area of the turnout.

Then we head up I-95 to Hollywood Blvd and just catch him at the crossing.

Backlit by the setting sun, a "screaming eagle" SD40 leads a general freight South across the main to DeSoto, MO. The Canary GP40-2 and the UP/MP hoppers are a sign that the sun is setting on the Missouri Pacific.

Many years later, and a little further up the line, the MoPac and Katy units lead an autorack train North out of DeSoto.
