Dinner Train?
After stopping for a sandwich a the newly re-opened Whistle Stop Cafe, housed in the former Wabash Depot in Ferguson (visible on the right) I observed the signal lined for westbound movement into the siding.
A friendly engineer gives some toots as NS 224 passes the patrons at the Cafe and starts to head into the siding.
Unfortunately, the Japanese Honeysuckle which has completely taken over the Midwest in the last couple decades has already grown up this spring blocking out most of the view of the Depot.
