Run-By of KCS Freight train in Decatur, AR.
While on my vacation in Arkansas, I stopped in Decatur to look around the old depot turned museum and was treated with a long freight train going thru shortly after I arrived. It was running 2 engines in front and 1 in the back, which I tend to call Push/Pull just cuz I'm funny that way. :3
Power Units where:
KCS EMD SD70MAC #3916
KCS EMD SD70MAC #3961
KCS Rebuilt EMD GP40-3 #4773 in Red/Orange/Black Paint Scheme
* I kinda need to still learn to keep still when videoing these. :)

ATS: Coast to Coast: Eastward Track - Shreveport.LA.US to Vicksburg.MS.US
My secondary profile EL CEJ is driving in a driver-owned basic truck and trailer. The driver is tracking east from San Diego.
In this trip, he has loaded timber planks at a Rail Export yard in Shreveport Louisiana. The destination is to the east at the Plaster and Sons construction site in Vicksburg, Mississippi.
The trip goes out of Shreveport, getting onto Interstate 20 going east across Louisiana. As this is a shortish night-time journey, I get our driver to pass through Monroe Louisiana on the way. He then heads back onto the interstate and resumes the way east.
Eventually he crosses the Mississippi River into the state of Mississippi. The first turnoff is the way into Vicksburg. Parking turns out to be relatively easy at the construction site.
The Coast to Coast map does not show the Yazoo River, the cliffs, the military park, or even the Coca-Cola museum.
