FWWR Sunday chase
Author: KB5WK

We had excellent weather last Sunday 04/14/19.  I made a morning run to Cowtown. Caught some trains in Saginaw, and went to Hodge yard to find the FWCR Cresson Turn all ready to go about 12:30 pm with FWWR 2027 leading. Within moments after I arrived. So did the crew van to drop off the engineer and conductor. They got rolling quick. I caught them a few places from Ft Worth to Cresson TX. Here are the pics.

1)  along Cleburne Rd passing 8th Avenue yard. Ft Worth TX.
2) Approaching East Cresson. 
3) West end of Cresson yard.

That bridge design used to cross MUSTANG CREEK is very, very unusual and interesting!  Do you know who built that bridge, and when??  That is a rare sight on RR bridges!
