Grand River RR (GTR) 2 |
| Description: |
Grand River was one of those 'on the list to visit' forever, but never anywhere remotely close railroads. Finally made it by adding several extra hours onto a trip between Baton Rouge & Kansas City. Worth it? For Alco S switcher, you betcha. |

VSR roster |
| Description: |
So what is the actual reporting mark for V&S Railway? Careful before you answer-both VS and VSR are floating around as 'legit'. Still, major numbers of cars in the Medicine Lodge yard, and more at the interchange in Attica, and business looks good. |

The GE vs. the High Line |
| Description: |
Here we have the North Louisiana & Arkansas, or what was left of it. On a trip to Baton Rouge, we followed the NLA for its whole length. Only active engine was this Army retiree, and only cars were the string on the steep lead to the Port. Not real sure what to say on this one... |

The NLA and the Army veteran |
| Description: |
Only active unit on the entire NLA, the very faded 1658 was parked on the mainline past the switch to the port. Cool to see a GE in revenue service, but couldn't actually see any revenue either. |

HTR 646 |
| Description: |
This is one of those "use up your luck for the next year" circumstances. On my way back from Utah visiting my son, I stopped by remote Hudson to see if I could anything sitting within telephoto distance. So did not expect to find a 539 engined Alco working away. I still had 9 hours of driving after this, was a little late getting back to MO that night.... |
