1st photo is the train southbound towards Van Buren near a spot called Graphic.

2nd is the train headed north towards Springdale, again near Graphic.

3rd is the train at West Fork.

The next day wasn't as nice weather wise, but still...these are Alcos!

Both photos are near Graphic.

Thanks for looking!

Nice stuff. They're a fun railroad to chase.

Never knew that spot was called Graphic. I always labelled my slides there as "Frog Bayou".

Maps call the body of water Clear Creek but locals (and some maps) call it Frog Bayou...I prefer the latter. Never heard this spot referred to as "Graphic"--always called it "Lancaster." Maybe my memory is fuzzy...

I believe the location is Frog Bayou.Lancaster is in deep woodland area and has a station sign put up in 2005 by the local National Railway Historical Society.

I used YOUR Delorme map when I went there in 1994!

Thanks everyone! I was just going by what the GPS said for that area, but after looking at google maps I see 'Frog Bayou' for there, so I will change the file names.

One other name that came up on the GPS for that area was 'Hogs Eye' which I think sounds rather nice :)
