Dawn
The morning after the CPKC merger, what's left of the KCS OCS changes crews at Heavener, Oklahoma for the final trip over Rich Mountain to Shreveport. The train left Kansas City hours after the merger ceremony the day before but was incrementally delayed enough for a daylight run out of Heavener the following morning. All of that after a furious 11-hour drive from Saint Paul, Minnesota to Heavener playing catchup with the train.
