After spending a few days in north Texas visiting friends and relatives and going to the train show and Railspot luncheon in Plano January 18-20, I'm back in Arkansas. Here's a few trains at Union Station in Little Rock taken January 21 and 22, 2014, including Wisconsin & Southern boxcars. a railtrain and a Mockingbird, plus various other old 'fallen flag' freight cars.  (I'll have photos from North Texas in another webpage as time permits)

After this train left, all trains were stopped while the police investigation on the bridge was going on. (I never heard anything else on this incident, so I don't know who the person on the bridge was. However, I did hear sirens at the bridge shortly after this was reported.)
