Here's a few from the last couple days. These are on the Hannibal Sub toward the North St. Louis end of the line. The weather has been poor around here lately, so you take what you can get.

Nice shots Bill

Nice work Bill. I really dig the second photo.
Nice catches Bill. I was up on the Hannibal Sub after dark last night near Clarksville and saw a few coal trains (all with SD70ACe leaders, too!). While at the cement plant in Dundee, I saw a pair of BN SD60Ms switching. I assume they are on the local movement, but I really don't know much about it (where it originates, schedules, days of the week, etc.). Do you know anything about it?

I have never seen any local trains that I know of. Maybe some of the mixed freights are special runs for local industry, but I've never picked up on any regular schedule.
