Another surprise |

Rolling by |
| Description: |
The 262 now is about on the crossing at Lake Frances, and we see what is an unusual consist for a road train, a CP GP ECO and a KCD GP 40-3 trailing the leader. Maybe this is local power to be dropped somewhere?? I cant recall the last time I saw four motor power on a road train on the KCS. |

Easing past |

The 262 eases past 261s DPU as it reaches the switch for the south end of the siding, the ET44AC class unit leading. The two covered hoppers at right are in the siding for Pipelife Jetstream, which receives covered hoppers of plastic pellets to make PVC pipe. |

Coming back from lunch |
| Description: |
We were coming back from lunch, and I noticed cars sitting under the US 412 overpass. Must be a meet going on, or about to, I thought. We crossed over the tracks, looking south to see the home signal at the end of the siding lit green for the main. Good, the southbound in in the block, having passed the home signal at CP North Siloam Springs. We pulled down onto Lake Frances Drive, to find the DPU on the 261 train in the siding, and what would turn out to be the 262 not quite there yet, |

This classic MP hopper was bringing up the rear of the 262 train. UP has gone to some length to preserved the trademarks of its component roads. This car surely achieves that goal, and didnt even have to be repainted. |

P&W car |
| Description: |
One of the things short lines have gotten into over the years is leasing. This boxy coil steel car is lettered for a subsidiary of the Providence & Worcester, now a part of the Genesee & Wyoming empire, previously a short line that had divorced itself from PC in the early 70s. Northbound on the 261 at Noel Mo. |
