KCS 310479
Title:  KCS 310479
Description:  KCS 310479 was part of a train on the former DME/ICE line in Davenport, IA on 1-19-2012. Note that it's coupled do DME 6200, which along with CITX 3057 was heading this train north through Davenport. The house or structure in the background is beautiful but after being away from the area for several years now, I don't remember the identity of it. The Mississippi River is behind me, fortunately a good ways behind me at this season of the year (the flood waters can sometimes rise quite extensively!)
