Description:  I apologize for this poor shot, but had to take it. What we initially thought was just an empty coal drag, was taking forever to get going after the crew change. We soon found out why, as the stuck some stacks on the back of it! Quite unusual for the Jeff City sub!

Title:  I only caught one train......
Description:  Having seen two trains on ATCS, on the BNSF Hannibal sub, I headed out with the hope of catching both.....but it did not happen. Was about 3/4 of a mile short of the first one (which was more interesting), as it had a pumpkin, Ferromex, and a WAMX on it. So had to wait for this mixed train, just before the showers started!

Title:  PSR moment.....
Description:  Took this one along time to come out of Jefferson City. Seems one of the units was low on fuel, so they shut that one down. Running 3x2x2, empty, this one is now on the Sedalia sub, and would eventually hold the main further up the line, so an eastbound Amtrak could take a side. This is my first in person PSR train.
