Western Railroad Discussion > Arkansas Road Trip . . .

Just returned from a 3 day swing through Arkansas to record trains/depots/museums which seem to be plentiful in the state--I gotta go back for more. Here's a few samples.
UP 4162 leads a rail train through Knoxville AR.
UP 5758-5771 coal load past the depot and caboose display at Morrilton AR--the DPU was also 5700 class.
UPY 173 still in Searcy AR--don't think it has left this spot in several years.
UP 8404-SPatch 6201 head a coal load onto M&NA trackage at Diaz Jct AR for the Independence Power plant at Newark AR.
CSX 4716-4817 with loads of auto racks Clarendon AR.
UP 4793-4507-5141 an all-EMD consist of street running past the Cotton Belt depot Pine Bluff AR.
