Here's
a few train photos I did the past week (December 4 through December 11,
2009) . I did a little 'doctoring' on one with my usual sense of humor.
Union Pacific has a new cement sign at the entrance to their North
Little Rock yard which was decorated for Christmas and I've also
included a photo of that. Included on this page:
1) UP 1539, 9400
2) Central Arkansas Transit streetcar 411 and 408
3) HLCX 3801
4) SP 9755-unpatched
5) KCS 4541 and 457 on an intermodal, the only locomotives on the train
6) New UP sign at the entrance to the North Little Rock Terminal
7) M.O.W equipment
LEFT-UP 1539 passing the Christmas-enhanced cedar tree on December 4 at Union Station. (The ornaments were electronically added, but the red bow on the train is real). RIGHT-New UP sign at the entrance to the North Little Rock Terminal on December 6. After this was taken, more ornaments were place on it.
LEFT-UP 9400 passing the station on December 6 at 11:27 a.m. RIGHT-Southbound UP 1539 passing a northbound mixed at 11:30 a.m. December 6, 2009.
LEFT-Central Arkansas Transit Electric Streetcar 408 decorated for Christmas, taken at the River Market stop on December 9 (Wednesday) in Little Rock. RIGHT-From inside the streetcar heading east to the Clinton Library, passing streetcar 411 heading west on 3rd Street. They will have a 2010 streetcar calendar again this year, ready by the end of December. I was told today (December 11) that I'll have 10 of the 13 pictures in this calendar and that I'd be given 100 to give away. If anyone wants one again, I'll send you one free, postage included. Central Arkansas Transit will give me the calendars and envelopes and I'll pay the postage. Last year I gave away 150, mainly from requests from the Railspot Yahoo Group and Trainorders.com sites. I'll let you know when they are ready, but they can't be guaranteed for Christmas. One person in Salem, Oregon has already put in his request.
LEFT-Ice on Thursday, December 10 at Union Station. It was 20 degrees this morning. RIGHT-HLCX 3801 and SP 9755-unpatched, 9:19 a.m. December 10.
RIGHT-These pigeons were eating some sort of grain on the tracks.
LEFT-KCS 4541 and 4572 on an intermodal, Friday, December 11, 2009 at 3:16 p.m. About 30 minutes later, UP SP Heritage 1996 passed here, but I had to leave before it got arrived. RIGHT-
