It was a nice sunny morning to shoot video. Train # 4 reached my location at 7:10. The lead locomotive was Road # 173, with Road # 180 trailing. The Engineer had her window open this morning, and gave me a nice wave. This unit has horn problems! I took my time getting torn down, and back on the road. As I came into the South end of Topeka, I looked in the mirror, and here came the train BEHIND ME! There was evidently some track work back there, and they either had to stop, or run 10 mph through a work zone. Whatever happened....I got to watch them go through Pauline, and over the Topeka Blvd. Bridge. THANKS FOR WATCHING!.....Doc
Wasn't this taken just north of the village of Wakarusa, KS.?
