How foggy was it today???? |
Description: |
After finishing some volunteer work, I was near the K Line. Hearing a passinmg train, I decided to go look. Spotted a freight crossing the Mo River bridge, and headed for Hwy 94. I was not ready for the thermal inversion that I encountered. This mixed freight appeared, and just as quickly disappeared........ |

I had looked down the track at one crossing, saw nothing. By the time I got to the 2nd Dalbow Rd crossing (they are spread out), I saw headlights. The local is on the move out of StL, with about 18 cars, mostly tanks. |
