Two for Warbonnet Wednesday
Author: Santafes95

The first shot is at Fort Osage, approaching the Missouri River Bridge at Sibley. The 60M is rounding the curve at Santa Fe Junction heading to Chicago, long before the overpass. Probably trespassing a little on KCTerminal property.Oops.

I'll but the second shot at Santa Fe Junction.  However, it appears the train is crossing the UP/SP/RI connector and
heading for the "Gooseneck" and Ustick Tower.  Perhaps a detour for work on the Sibley Bridge?

No that is the north main crossing the SP/UP. The track in the foreground is the turn to the gooseneck. This train is too far north. The switch to head to the goosenck would be about 500 feet before this spot.

Okay, I get it now. You're standing southeast of the tower.  I had thought you were on the west side.
Ah the good old days when you could wander around places like that.
