Returning From the Port
Author: BNSF-6432

This past Thursday I had time to kill so I went to check out what was going on at the Port of Catoosa. I came up lucky, as I first encountered SKOL job 108 just finishing up their work there and also saw BNSF's 467 job waiting to switch there. It didn't take much to decide who to go after, since 467 was stopped for who knows how long and 108 was just starting to head back for Owasso. Once they got to Owasso it was a surprise to see 205 (southbound train from Cherryvale, KS) parked on the main with another pair of SD40's

1) SKOL 108 approaches the 56th street crossing on the jointed rail line to the Port of Catoosa

2) Crossing 76th street in Owasso, OK entering the yard

3) With a small maintenance gang working off to the side, 108 enters on the yard tracks while 205's train sits on the main

4) Because they had to switch their train using the wye to the port lead, I went for the opposite view as 108 backs up putting the old Santa Fe sign in view
