UP 6819 at the front of the shorter mixed freight, now with both being held up... it would seem Hearne is like many other places: huge expanses of boredom and nothing followed by brief rushes of extreme activity, because we can hear another one coming through (dang - Im not sure how all you folks in towns with diamonds do this, because I have no clue where hes coming from or going - except both these tracks are no blocked).

Waitind for traffic to clear up on the Fort Scott Sub.

I decided that if that coal train had only one unit up front that it would probably would have DPU and it did so I went back up onto the bridge and got a picture of UP 6819 serving as DPU on the coal train.

Now in the process of putting there train away at Cozy Siding, the crew is about to get to go home, a new crew will arrive after the train is inspected and take it to Sharon Springs

UP 6819 is now about to roll past a tied down coal load at Ike Siding as it continues west

Now rolling through Fighting Irish land, better known as Chapman this coal train shatters the silence of a normally sleepy town
