Wide view
Title:  Wide view
Description:  A wider angle view at Goodman shows the 2816, tender and water tanks, and the accompanying diesels, as well as another fan shooting video. At right is the railfan chase vehicle, my wifes 2001 Stratus R/T, the five speed. Great running car, though the lack of AC on this 95 degree day made for a challenge. But it will go 90 MPH!!

Straight at you
Title:  Straight at you
Description:  After Goodman, I took off, but even a five speed didnt let me catch up by McElhany, so I beat it up onto I 49 to the Gateway exit, knowing there was a long tangent that might make an interesting photo. I really wanted to get the shot from the shoulder of I 49, but standing on an interstate highway for a long period was going to get me unwanted attention from the state troopers, so nixed that. Good thing-there was a hi-rail working, and didnt give up his track and time right away, so waited 45 minutes here. Still, a good shot.

Old bridge
Title:  Old bridge
Description:  After getting the shot at Gateway, I again hit the interstate, getting to the I 44/Mo 249 interchange, and took 249 up to Mo 171 to bypass Joplin, which I knew would be a chase killer. It was a good decision, as I heard the detector at MP 150 go off just as I was clearing Airport Drive. I had enough time to get off to the side, but not to cross MO 171, which is a busy two lane at 1600. I was still able to manage a shot of the train coming off the through truss adjacent to the highway. I have to do this with a freight some time.

Roadside pan
Title:  Roadside pan
Description:  The highway and tracks are close enough that a pan shot is possible up through Asbury, then the tracks veer away from the road. I got this last chance grab shot from the car as the train sped away.

Title:  Shadowed
Description:  The 2816 and train rolls north along US 59, in a shady side shot that would allow me to keep up the chase. The juxtaposition of dark and light makes for an interesting image.
