UP 4234
Title:  UP 4234
Description:  UP 4234 in the number two hole on an eastbound double-header double-stack just west of Hearne... and the only unit landing upon the sensor without telephone pole, tree, or traffic marring the view. But, honestly, I was in too good of mood to care... we were going BACK to the Dixie Cafe *again* so I could get more fried catfish. Life is good.

UP 4610
Title:  UP 4610
Description:  UP 4610 lead on that eastbound double-stack headed toward the Dixie Cafe... only included so I could plug the fried catfish one more time... it was a heap better than this image (by many thousand times better... plus I got to bat clean-up on everyone elses platter before waddling out of the restaurant).

UP 5917
Title:  UP 5917
Description:  UP 5917 appearing again a half-hour later now as were out exploring Valley Junction and the large multi-wye/diamond (no one would believe it would exist in real life: a wye on every leg of a diamond so it looks like a giant symmetric box under suction (pulling in the sides - the arcing turn-out-to-turn-out points/switches that would permit every direction to be a reversing leg on all four tracks. The right divergent switch to the UPs current track is closer to the photographer & arches on the far side of the local Valley Junction silo (putting it in the middle of the curving track off to the right); easier to see than describe - my shotgun rider suggested drone picture... all well and good, except the breeze through this section of Texas seems to blow at a healthy 50 knots non-stop... unless the wind starts blowing, then its harder. So pick your favorite map site and view it from above - its Valley Junction, Texas, between Gause, TX and Hearne, TX. ).

UP 8684
Title:  UP 8684
Description:  UP 8684 homeward facing angel... or at least load-on-her-nose workhorse in second position with double-stack passing Gause... about like everything and everyone else. (So feel sorry for the little town and check out the book on Gause, Texas... not that Id be doing any self-promotion, or anything...)

Brady Union Passenger Depot
Title:  Brady Union Passenger Depot
Description:  Brady Union Passenger Depot - the amazing things you can sometimes stumble across when you least expect it. Off the Texas Historic Landmark seal: "Union Passenger Depot - The Fort Worth and Rio Grande Railway built the first rail line into Brady in 1903. Eight years later the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe Railroad constructed a second line into town. This depot, built in 1911, was designed for passenger use for both railways. After 1946, it also was used for freight service. Prominent features of the depot include the corbeled brickwork, segmented arches, the red tile roof, and a parapet over the observation bay." And when we were there, I think someone accidentally left the gate open, because it didnt appear to be officially open, but the kind folks of Texas put up with us wandering around anyway - thank you.

Heart of Texas Railway office and service yard
Title:  Heart of Texas Railway office and service yard
Description:  And right across the road form the depot was the Heart of Texas Railway office and service yard - although at this point, I thought we were pushing our luck on wrong turns and oops, sorry up and down the streets of Brady, so I didnt push our luck (or getting the stink eye from my co-pilot) going down until someone decided to run me off - so unfortunately, there were at least two more of those wonderful livery locomotives down in there that looked like they wouldve been just as amazing as the three holed up out in the fields east of town... maybe next visit (or the next railfan?).

ATSF 461

Description:  ATSF 461... by the paint-job, but the plate on her says: "US Property Dept of Air Force / USAF, USAF - 1241, Locomotive DE 44 Ton 52½ In Ga 0-4-4-0 Class... Mfr General Electric Co 31879 Date 1953" - then again, wouldnt be the first re-registry to ever ply the rails (or the display case). Unfortunately the depot was closed for a school tour (although the gentleman running the depot offered to allow us to quickly trot through - but the westward push of vacation urged us onward - so its possible the questions wouldve been answered inside the depot (as it was moments after his offer, the parking lot filled with the young voices being expelled from the several transport vans).
