| Title: |
New leader |
| Description: |
When we got back to Gentry, we figured this train was waiting on a meet, which appeared to be imminent when we heard a horn off to the north. Not quite. This pair of units came down and coupled to the head end. I wasnt there to see what had gone on before we got there, but if I had to guess, they had a problem with the lead unit, and took the DPU and moved it to the head end. The plan was to chase this guy north, but KCS had other plans. Things don't often work out as you thought. |

Caught him |
| Description: |
The train, not the cow. My daughter was in from Tampa for Thanksgiving, returning this Monday morning. We passed through Gentry on the way to the airport, seeing the back of this empty oil train as we turned onto Ark 12 to go to XNA. I figured, this guy will be gone when we get back after dropping her off. To my surprise, the train was still there, waiting at the Ark 59B crossing, in the company of one of the local residents. There would be more action unfolding shortly. |

Thatll do |
| Description: |
The power that was the DPU is about to couple to the former lead unit. CSX 419 is the new leader, and will lead north. I didn't get a car count, but these trains usually run 112 cars-110 tanks and two buffers. |
