Western Railroad Discussion > Fordyce & Princeton ...... ooops, sorry

Caught this SW type at Fordyce, ARK yesterday having pulled this tank car
from a local industry and carrying it to the ex Rock Island yard. I feel sorry
for the brakeman. He tried waving me across the road before they arrived at the
crossing but I waited because I wanted this photo. He then had to get off the
tanker, flag the crossing in front of me while the tanker and switcher passed the road,
then climbed back on it.

Is it my fault they have an attractive photogenic paint scheme?

Good to see ex Rock 941 still pushing and pulling cars! But sad to see such a demise of that railroad...very close to my heart and it makes me sad.

Nice catch.

I assure you that RR is -very- used to railfans.
