First shot
Title:  First shot
Description:  I had gone up to McElhany, just south of Neosho, to get the first shots of the 2816, and start the chase from there, since Id have good road access and be able to get right to it. As with all things railroad, things oft go astray, and the 1050 departure time from Pittsburg was quite flexible. As a result, the 2816 didnt show til almost 1300. By then, what had been a sunny day had turned overcast, which it would remain the rest of the day.

Title:  Floswers and a switch stand
Description:  Relic of a one time siding-there was a lumber yard that once took freight cars just to the north; its now a hardware store, and hasnt had a rail delivery in many years-marks the now removed switch, which has gone back to nature. The 2816 adds to the scene.

Long catch up
Title:  Long catch up
Description:  I couldnt keep up with the train through Gentry and Siloam Springs due to heavy traffic-theres more than you;d think in these supposedly small towns, but at shift change, it can get crazy-and wanted to stop and pick up my wife, so lost some time there. By the time we caught him, it was all the way down to Sallisaw, where we see the 2816 rolling past the south end of the yard.

Canadian Pacific #2816
Title:  Canadian Pacific #2816
Description:  Canadian Pacific #2816 crosses over the Arkansas River southbound at Spiro, OK. A small group of us had watched the barge shoving upstream for several minutes while standing in chest high weeds and brush that we did manage to beat down after waiting on the #2816 for several hours. Knowing the 2816 was close by, it briefly crossed my mind that it would be neat to get both in one shot. I quickly dismissed it, as I am not that lucky. Once we were able to hear the #2816 whistiling for a crossing just north of the river, I knew it was going to be close. I had envisioned a perfect meet with the entire barge still back under the bridge as the #2816 crossed overhead, and was originally disappointed that the Capt. Tommy Parrish had photobombed the shot, but as it turns out, it wasn't too bad!
