Still moving against the current between Texarkana and Marshall, TX, the rock train must have confused the UP dispatcher when it got to the KCS interlocker at Jefferson, TX. Here, the brakeman had to go to the signal bungalow to contact the DS to get a signal to cross the KCS.
The engine of the westbound Chicago - St. Louis - Kansas City Ann Rutledge meets the eastbound Ann Rutledge just west of Jefferson City, Mo., for a crew change, in Nov. 2002. Shot with 50MM lens.
