Friday, March 27 and Saturday, March 28, 2009 at Little Rock and Brinkley, Arkansas. I used another digital camera to take a couple of sound movies along with my regular still photo camera - I put the camera taking the movie on a tripod and turned it on as the trains passed then took the stills at the same time. This time I uploaded the movies to YouTube since my .MOV files are so huge - now you don't have to download the movie, just play them on YouTube.  Let me know what you think.
   It was unusually cold on March 28 at Brinkley,  44 degrees with north winds gusting to 40 mph. Usual temperatures this time of year are in the lower 70s.

Included today:
1) UP 9656, 9644, 3863
