Tuesday, June 8, 2010, election runoff day in Arkansas. When I went to Union Station in Little Rock about 6:50 pm to photograph trains, I was met with the following media circus. They were all here to cover the US Senate Democrat runoff election between Blanche Lincoln (the incumbent) and Bill Halter. At the time I took these photos, the polls were still open. Oh...I also got two trains passing.

Included today:
1) UP 4355, 5850
2) Little Rock Streetcar


6:50 p.m.


I assume one of the candidates had their campaign headquarters in the station. Either that, or all these media folks were here to watch trains.








I don't remember when I saw so many media vans at this station before.


UP 4355 passes northbound at 7:26 p.m.


Another train approaches at 7:28 p.m. on the third track over (Main 1).


UP 5850, 7:28 p.m.
