UP 582         
With no IC power on the local, we decided to head back to the UP/CSX and hang around the Joint Line until the Big Boy showed. UPs LSB54 local was working Watseka when we were in Gilman, so we decided to head back there to grab it. However, before we got into town, they were ready to continue north to Saint Anne. They blasted north while we struggled to stay out ahead of them. We finally were able to get out ahead of them around Papineau, and we shot them across a field just south of Saint Anne. I actually had shot the local here last year with very similar power. But, whats wrong with doing the same thing twice?
