Sweet Light in Crew Lake
Engineer Steve Harner gives the group of us gathered next to the infamous KCS Crew Lake trestle a thumbs up as the 2024 CPKC holiday express blasts across at track speed. A noon time departure from Vicksburg, Ms, for the evenings showing in Monroe, La, meant there would be beautiful light along the small bayou known as Crew Lake. Crew lake is one of the few locations where the wooden trestles that once dominated the still hold on along the main. This shot was one of the must have locations both directions on the 2024 run. If this was the last year for the current configuration of this train I'm glad it was done well...
Thanks for looking!
