19 February 2018 - 14:30 CST
Daylight gave me an opportunity to record each piece of equipment of the U-LSSFLX.
Add this to Track Inspector Bird being issued a track warrant for "my" segment, so I can photograph the equipment with even safer knowledge that I would not be encountering a train coming through (not that I was ~that~ close to the tracks to start with.)
I ran into Mr. Bird midway through the shoot and had a nice conversation. The track equipment will be unloaded Tuesday morning 08:00. The empty train will be shuttled back south and stored at TMPA siding (MP139) - Gibbons Creek Generating Station is shut down until June, so the siding is not needed for coal trains or taking up a valuable passing siding for north / southbound meets).
