Sunday, November 24, 2013. It was a blustery and sub-freezing day at Union Station in Little Rock, but there were lots of trains to keep me warm. I saw locomotives from UP, NS, BNSF, KCS, CSX and BCRAIL including the 5,000th GEVO UP 7964. I also saw DRGW 12470, a loaded short coal hopper, MEC 31841 Pan AM blue boxcar, and other old freight cars. I got a closeup of a cold Mockingbird and a shot of what I called a Lemon Icebox Bush (a green bush in front of the library that had tons of bright yellow leaves on it that reminded me of a lemon icebox pie). It was 30 degrees and breezy with wind chill of 25 and snow is likely tonight and Monday. Hopefully I can get some snow/train pictures Monday.
