When I was following the northbound empty grain train, he called to a train at Dorsey, between Decatur and Gravette. He had an apporach signal at 219, so would likely get an approach medium at 216 in Decatur, indicating he would be getting a signal at South Dorsey to take the siding there for a meet. I went to Mt Olive Rd to set up for the southbound, hopefully getting there before he did, and shooting both trains, then chasing the southbound back home. I need not have feared. The southbound, this TXUX coal train headed for Texas, showed up 45 minutes later. The best laid plans..... |
