Smart thought: Take the multiple "Wrong Way" signs seriously!

How about the green arrow? That could either be a railroad sign or a one-way 'go this direction' sign for automobiles.... Confusing and a bad place to put such post.

Nice pic!

Great pic!!!! Not often you see a steamer that is street running. Is this a regular line with traffic, or is this a secondary one that the 3985 used?

Gorgeous photo. Is this a Main line or a seldom-used piece of track?

That track is UP's Fort Worth subdivision. There is plenty of traffic on it. In fact, concrete ties support the curve in the picture.

Great shot! Did you happen to click off a couple while the pilot was taking the curve and the boiler still on straight track?

UP 3985 on the UP Navasota sub. Ex-Mopac. This is a very active main line for UP.

David,

That is a beautiful shot. What a terrific spot to get a photo.

Makes me wish I had followed her further, instead of from Maud, TX to Corsicana.

But hey, there's always next week!

I stand corrected. I should know better, it IS the Navasota Sub. The location is W. 28th Street, just 2 blocks west of downtown Bryan.
