An SP Kind of Day . . .
Author: SCKP187

Yesterday I went north from Tulsa up towards Coffeyville on the UP Wagoner Sub just as the Tie Gang was releasing their Form C bulletins. In 2'30" time 9 trains stacked up and moved from Wagoner OK to Coffeyville KS.  It is common to see SPatched units on this part of the RR, but yesterday seemed to have more in the consists than normal.
1.     UP 8911-SPatch 6310 glides through Lenapah OK on flashing yellows 
2&3  A lite power move in the mix of trains with a 3 C44s UP 6626-6640-SPatch 6338 between Lenapah and Coffeyville
4.     The Neodasha KS interchange SK&O cement train with SPatch 6223-UP6941 AC60 at N Delaware OK

Agree with SP, nice catches on the patch units. That sounds like it was a rather busy few hrs there.  Always nice to catch some activity when out and about.   Ben

I would say you got your SP "fix" yesterday. Nice shots.
