Morning on the MoPac

Traversing the former Missouri Pacific River Subdivision at my favorite curve in Levasy, MO is a UCEX coal train.

 

From my understanding, these will become increasingly rare or extinct on this line due some trackage rights deal with BNSF on the Jeff City Sub. Feel free to elaborate in the comments as I don't know the full scoop of the situation.

 

I saw this guy sitting on the high line for five minutes, then get lit up all the way to Congo. Thankfully I made it with three minutes to spare. Could've been a bit cleaner, but oh well. High-headlight aces are one of my favorite motors.
