NS Northbound Freight Train W40 ( Meridian, Ms. to Birmingham, Al. ) stopped on the main at Vance, Al. awaiting a fresh crew. W40 went on the hours of service on the main at Vance, Al. causing a chain reaction of 314 to go on the hours of service as well. Bet the dispatcher got chewed out after this mess. W40 runs as M- SHNS ( Shreveport, La. to Norfolk Southern in Meridian, Ms. ) via KCS

William H. Davis Jr. General Thanks Nikos, Best I could do was a broadside shot due to being backlit headon. I was after 339 with a KCS Belle SD70ACe leading a KCS Grey SD70ACe. W40 going on the hours of service at Vance kept me from shooting 339, oh well, I've caught plenty of them over the years anyway, anything I get these days are tally shots 7/8/2011 10:31:29 AM
