Amtrak #4 East
The government local was a little tardy this AM which allowed me to get in position for a drone shot form the comforts of inside my vehicle. The thermometer read -9 when the bird was put in the air for this shot and the wind chill was south of -30.
This shot is in between Eudora and De Soto just east of the intermediate signal at MP 16.7. Nice of them to get the trees cleared off the ROW here.
Crystal clear skies were abound this AM but the trains were not. Broken rails and trains setting out bad orders really slowed things down and eventually the clouds showed up. Final tally was 3.
