Jim Gavin General Great shot !! Love to see freight cars with no "artwork". 3/16/2010 11:19:19 AM
Fred Stuckmann General Ya, that's a novel concept. Great shot. 3/20/2010 9:08:36 PM
Terry LaFrance General More likely this train was heading to Tulsa and on to the Santa Fe at Avard. The car is no indicator whereas the engines are. 4/23/2011 5:37:08 AM
