November 19. They were running fast and numerous for awhile, this
one
only 12 minutes behind the previous one. I had to miss a few also,
since I was working as a volunteer at the museum and giving tours. Plus
by the time I hear the train blowing for the crossing a short distanct
north of this depot and get my camera, the train is already speeding
past at track speed.
It's now Sunday, November 20,
and I'm
once again at Union Station in Little Rock. BNSF trackage rights train
headed by SF 6465 and SF 6464 passes at 10:27 a.m. Received the

in the ATSF picture there in LR. Those are SD-45-2's of which
there are not many left and to be consecutively numbered is real rare."
