Thunder on the KP |
| Description: |
In a photo that's loosely combining both of my hobbies into one, a huge thunderhead towers over the KP. That night it would produce an EF3 tornado that destroyed part of the town of Reading, KS. Tomorrow a different storm from the same system would devestate Joplin, MO with an EF5 tornado, my prayers go out to all of those effected, sad to say it was devestation to those, yet was beauty to me, before it did harm. |

UP 6551 westbound UP manifest train |
| Description: |
UP 6551 is in charge of the 57 car MKSSI 21, if I had stayed 5 minutes after getting the shot of those thunderclouds, this shot would be 1000 times better. I ended up crashing my bike, and sprinting to get this grab shot, of course there was someone waiting at the crossing who got a heck of a laugh out of my little incident. |

UP 844 eastbound UP Little Rock Express special train |

The prize of the day, UP 844 chuffs up hill with UP 1982 putting on a show doing most of the work, sad to say they were having bearing problems and were 3 hours late today, hopefully that problem will get fixed once they make KC, todays train ran as the SMVKC 29. Leave it to point and shoot cameras to screw up an otherwise good picture. |
