Since I have been working so hard lately, my boss told me to take the day off, so guess what I did?....My day netted with 11 videos, with a couple surprises and a disappointment.
We start off the day with T18 having just finished work at the Young Mines along the A Line at MP 110-A
After T18 passed, I made my way just down the road to catch 38Q at the Friends crossover:
As I knew I was heading toward Morristown, I thought I would continue the chase of 38Q and caught it again at Mays Road, just past the Talbott intermediate signals:
and then again at Morristown Yard:
The first surprise of the day came along at Coulter as seen here, and I must say I had no idea it would be this kind of surprise:
Then I heard 16T call Talbott, so I thought I would stay put to catch it here:
Then T18 says its ready to go back to Knoxville:
By this time, I had learned from Jacob that 135 is being led by the BNSF Executive SD80MAC engines that passed through this area last week. The power had since turned and made its way back east and is now making its way back west. So I chased down the River Line hoping I would catch it as it was known that it was by Del Rio east of Newport. I never did catch it as it was held in place east of Newport by T27 on its way to Newport. At this time I decided to take a country drive up to Greenville and back. On my way back I saw 135 stopped at New Line to set an engine out. So I raced down to Coulter hoping to catch it there after setting out the engine.
In the meanwhile, 37Q shows up at Coulter:
and 37Q
and then the second surprise of the day showed up:
Well, 135 never did show up by the time I needed to go. That was the disappointment of the day. On my way home, I shot 134 again, as seen here:
