The final [KCS] Dodger |
| Description: |
April 14, 2023. 9:24 AM. The Dodger waits in the hole for the all-clear after the grain passes. The Dodger is so named for this exact scenario - dodging the mainline trains and weaving its way into the sidings to bypass. In a little over 35 minutes, Kansas City Southern will be no more. |

Goodbye, KCS. |
| Description: |
9:29 AM. This was the final photo I took of an on-line KCS train, and it happens to be the Watts Dodger. The last train before the merger at 10:00 AM CST was a run-through coal drag. And with that, the era of KCS was no more. Now, its onto CPKC and whatever the future may bring... |

KCS 2972 |
| Description: |
KCS always has 3 Geeps assigned to our area for local duty in NW Arkansas/E Oklahoma. They usually swith between GP40-3, GP40-2, GP38-3, GP38-2 or GP40-2W in either Grey or Belle. On this day, I caught 2972 separated from it's 2 sisters (which were unfortunately obscured by trees to catch) at the nearby Bakery Feeds. |
