Amtrak Texas Eagle 22 had locomotive 156 on it tonight, Sunday January 4. 2015 at Union Station in Little Rock, Arkansas. Locomotive 156 is the 40th anniversary loco. It was cold and breezy, 27 degrees with wind chill 18. My fingers turned red from the cold. There was a good crowd again at the station, waiting to get on the 12-minute early Eagle at 11:19 p.m.  Here are a few photos.


People started lining up as early as 11:13 p.m. Most leaving on northbound no. 22 are going to St Louis or Chicago.




11:16 p.m. Amtrak 22 is due at Little Rock at 11:31 p.m. but is often early in recent months.
