Good Morning
A UP stacker sweeps through Levasy, MO on the UP River Subdivision.
I have now learned that when your trusted weather source says "partly cloudy" for the following morning, one should still prepare for a first light outing. I have slept in on quite a few "partly cloudy" mornings and have missed cool trains. Infrared satellite suggested that a clear morning may be possible out east. As I conclude this, I see a train lined out of Neff to Congo on ATCS. I look a chance and hoped for the best, and this T4 Ace was a pleasant surprise.
The clouds eventually did come in (and almost ruined this shot), but I was able to grab a BNSF Z at Sibley after this despite increasing cloud cover.
