Thank you very much for posting these shots. I spent a great deal of time at each of those spots. Some great memories.

Excellent coverage!

As usual, biff, great stuff!!

If I may, well, I will anyway, some additional information and a correction.

#1 is westbound while #2 is eastbound. The crossing these were shot at has been
closed, making life a lot easier for railfans.

#3 and #4 are both eastobunds, and the wig wag in #4 is long gone.

#5 is not Henrietta. Track through that town is straight as a taut string. This was
taken just west of CA Junction where the now NS and BNSF tracks split. About the same
spot as #3 but the train is heading in the opposite direction.

#6 is at Santa Fe Junction, eastbound leaving Kansas and entering Missouri.

#7 I believe is a westbound at the south edge of town.

#8 is an eastbound.

Again, really cool stuff, thanks for posting and hope this helps you.

Great stuff! What camera were you using back then to get such great resolution?
