Through the Flowers and the Weeds
It's been a rainy summer so far in Texas, and nature has loved it. Green plants and sunflowers have popped up everywhere, including all over railroad ROW's.
Here at Chaney Jct in central Houston, greenery has encroached on lineside signals and electrical boxes as an eastbound UP manifest rolls by. The weeds would be distrubed soon though, as the former SP searchlight to the right would be removed the following day.
UP Manifest
KCS AC4400CW #4589
UP SD70AH #9009
(Mid-Train DPU) KCSM ES44AC #4723
