CWC3 1st post---mixed pix

Well guys, this is the first time for me to use this site so we will see how this works.  Here goes,

couple pictures from yesterdays rondevous.

took this at kennedale on the approach to Bisbee Siding (mp 42.9).  Loaded Cement train headed for Midlothian. Taken 10/28/2010

A going away shot of the cement train with UP 9538 (c41-8w).

UP 1996 (ESPEE heritage sd70ace) on the M-FwHo-24 taken on 11/24/2010.  This was an unexpected suprise for me as i came around the curve from I-35 to I-30 and saw it at T&P station main track 4.  I gave chase to it. 

BNSF 6766 (an x ATSF sd40-2) and another sister unit switch a UP Coal train that came in off the Fort Worth Sub of the UP.  The BNSF switches it and delivers the cars to the steel mill here at Ward Spur.  UP is responsible for transport to Ward Spur.

Here we have KCS 4586 ac4400cw and KCS 4037 sd70ace RETROBELLE as they pass under Allen St and will stop at South Ney Yard to obtain a Track Warrant from the Midlothian Sub DS.  BTW this is train M-FwHo-22 taken 9/22/2010.

BNSF 6385 es44ac and a sd70ace pass me at Broadway Ave and head south toward Ney and eventually the Midlothian sub and will head to Kirvin Tx for the TXUX (Big Brown plant)

Taken from the FWWR overpass at Echo Lake Park on the Beginning of the Midlothian sub.  UP 2446 a sd60m that was recently taken out of storage to help with the ever changing pick up in freight(yay, good to see the 60s and the 60ms back.)

Here we have FWWR 2004 and 2019 on the Everman Sub Branch.  This job usually runs early morning hours.

On Friday, I caught this bad boy, the M-ShFw-14 with a KCSM 4668 retrobelle gevo and another UP 4264 sd70m.  (Thanks Mr Hawk and Brad for Heads up)

My last picture is well, my favorite for today---a warbonnet consist and one single NS loco with what I am soon going to be doing, working for the ARMY.  Lead loco was BNSF 718.
