After three months of summer heat and 62 days of 100+ temperatures, it was nice to know that Fall starts tomorrow.


With fall in the air, soon the Sue Line team will be back to full strength. Above a piggy back train (Train 7) pulls through Leming.


Danny Garland (above) was back in the ME&T Yard in Shreveport and was running trains with his WiiThrottle.


Rob Robbins (above) was the MOp and kept Maryville, Lake Hamilton and the E-Branch busy.


Mose Crews (above) made easy work of keeping the trains moving in Sue City. Mose was so efficient, he also ran the Shreveport Public Belt in Keithville.


Jim Willis (above, file shot) once again was the master off the Yard at Alexandria.


Paul Harwell (above) is one of the mainline engineers. Here Paul Harwell is switching his train in Robinson.


Another mainline engineer was Rodney Dixon (above). Rodney Dixon is about to switch his cars at Sue City.


Charlie DeVillbiss (above) was a third mainline engineer. Here Charlie DeVillbiss is showing how he could make room for a pass at Maryville when both trains we too long. Is that a caboose in his hands? I believe the dispatcher goofed up on this meet.


Ron Brannon, a fourth mainline engineer look happy as he waits in Ft. Barrow for a meet at Maryville.



Lionel Brangham (above, gray shirt) is explaining to Ron Brannon (above, left) and Rob Robbins (above, right) how a meet in Maryville works.


Ken Ellison (above) was a seventh engineer also on the mainline. Here Ken Ellison is using his WiiThrottle and is about to take a train out of Union Street Yard in Shreveport. Ken Ellison also supplied the photos for this session. Many thanks to Ken
