Grey Ghost Trifecta

Three years ago the last solid grey KCS SD40 consist was out running for one more day along the KCS Gulfport Subdivsion. We are set up in Saucier, Ms, a little after 8 am one morning for our first shot of the day. Engineer Darrell Mickler has his train in the wind as they head north towards Hattiesburg on a muggy southern summer morning. The very next morning freshly painted 3206 replaced the 695 on the north end, and as since there has never been a solid grey SD40 consist again... I credit my good friend Brandon Smith for letting me know about this train. Without his texting me I never would have known this was still possible all the way into 2019.

 

Thanks for looking and enjoy!
