Remarks & Notes

KCS 1 and company look wonderful in the beautiful morning sunlight as they cross a small wooden trestle near Anacoco, Louisiana. The Business train is on day 3 of its multi-day trip to Laredo, Texas. Here it is scorching down the KCS' Beaumont Subdivision towards the days destination of Kendleton, Texas. Thanks especially to David Hawkins for messaging us that the OCS was out of the yard in Shreveport early that AM. Sunrise was at 6 and they were not far behind. We leapfrogged them this day to start shooting in a cloudy Zwolle, La, but quickly were blessed with some wonderful sunny angles of the train. This one at Anacoco takes the cake. Wooden trestles on class one railroad main lines are rare these days, and this scene with the passenger F's looks stuck right in the mid 1950's. More to come soon! Thanks for looking and enjoy!
