High Sun at High Hill
After picking up the chase in Ferguson, where I didn't bother to take shots -- there is video, though -- I caught it again in front of the Wentzville water tower (shots are "meh") and then didn't bother with anything else until the somewhat iconic location where the tracks cross above I-70, the at grade with old US 40, then pass a Wabash era Searchlight.
The sun was still pretty high here, but getting better. Just needed to be patient.
Thanks to EA for the headsup on the unit being in the area!
