Remarks & Notes |
Big power off the Conroe District. Empty grain trains from Beaumont would tie up here and power sets would get fueled. A wary eye is on the mainline as this photo was taken as there was a loaded coal bearing down on us as we were standing right by the rail; we thought they held him at Davidson, but we were wrong. It was a close call, not one of our smartest moves. That was when we were young and stupid: now I'm just stupid. |
