Western Railroad Discussion > Monday Meets: Sliding by at MacVicar Rd

Three of Uncle Pete’s trains -2 of them very long- get by each other in west Topeka, KS. Just another routine 3-way meet for the DS…

1. & 2. UP 7838 is rolling west with a manifest under acceleration. It’s rear car has just cleared the sharp, speed restricted curve coming off the Kansas River Bridge. The 7838 is meeting…

3. …The 7013 on an eastbound manifest with another train ahead of him, and they both won't fit between MacVicar Rd & the bridge. But after staying clear of MacVicar the 7013 has started moving again, with the 7838 approaching clearing the area.
