My mockingbird friend at the Little Rock train station, March 8. I feed him and other birds crackers and popcorn at times. They almost come to my hand at the car. There's also a hawk here and lots of scared pigeons when the hawk is overhead.
LRNW 1544 and 1542, 9:52 a.m. March 8, a Thursday in steady rain, a short-line railroad here in Litle Rock (Union Pacific owns the tracks but they use them)
CN 2674, a Canadian National red, white and black locomotive, kind of unusualy here.
From my car during a good downpour. Looking at weather radar across the country, I see parts of Texas have been getting rain too the past few weeks which is good since they've been in a drought for a long time.
Main Street in North Little Rock, March 8 heading north at 12:47 p.m.
The trolley barn is on the right.
Passing 6th Street North Little Rock.
The drug store upper right of streetcar 410 in North Little Rock is the oldest continuously operating drug store west of the Mississippi in the same location. It began sometimes in the late 1800s.
The Main Street Viaduct bridge over the Union Pacific (former Missouri Pacific) tracks in North Little Rock was built in 1927. I walk on the sidewalks on this bridge sometimes to take pictures of trains. It's rather hazardous though since Main Street is so busy. Taken March 9, Friday.
Union Pacific's Jenks Shops in the distance taken from the Main Street Bridge, March 9.
KRL 7105, a heavy hauler flatcar that moves things like large electrical transformers that weighs many tons.
