Missouri Pacific U30C's #2973 and #2974 are on brand new track that was supposed to have been the Star Lake Railroad in New Mexico in June of 1984. Apparently the Star Lake never really existed! This is now the location of where BNSF's Lee Ranch Subdivision meets the Transcon at CTC Baca. The Santa Fe train in the background is heading Eastbound.
I really love our bridge in Washington Missouri when im not driving across it in blinding rain. But they are building a new and updated one now. We have ice on the Missouri River passing by Washington, Missouri and the bridge, stars and ice all came together. There was a crane and part of a new bridge in there. I took it out and everything looks incredible!
What's left of the business "district." There was one business still operating--a tiny walk-up snack bar on US 136, but the population was only about 80--down from a high of about 600 a century ago. Mt. Moriah had at least one notable citizen: Charles "Babe" Adams--one of the great baseball pitchers from the early 1900's. In his rookie season, he won 3 games in the World Series for the Pirates and was MVP. There is a small monument to him in a tiny park at the center of the town square.
Incidentally, the "box" in front of the smaller building is an old rusty safe.
The epicenter of Missouri River fishing is the small town of Craig, MT. Thousands of tourists, local Montana fisherman, and fishing guides flock to the river each year for one reason. The trout fishing is just that good. When you land the biggest brown trout of your life after it jumps out of the water three times right in front of you during an epic battle, the trip seems like nothing.
With thousands of fish per mile and a huge river it is truly a delight to fish. With rising fish from the middle of April until November, there really aren't too many factors that can make the Missouri unproductive. Despite the Missouri's world-renowned status, there are many days when you may never see another boat.
I thank you for the comments and faves! Have a great day!

BNSF 7226 leads the U TCYMNS7 31 across BNSF's relatively new bridge over the Missouri River at Plattsmouth, NE. This is part of BNSF's Creston Sub, and just behind the train is Pacific Junction, IA, where the Creston Sub meets the north-south line from KC-Council Bluffs (Napier & Council Bluffs Subs).
The Missouri Theater in St. Joseph, Missouri opened in 1927. The theater, designed by theater architects Boller Brothers of Kansas City, Missouri, uses a combination of Art Deco and Moorish detailing.
The theater and adjacent office building were added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 11, 1979.

Amtrak train 316, the "Missouri River Runner", making it's station stop in Lee's Summit, MO.
The train departed Kansas City on time at 4:05, arriving Lee's Summit a couple minutes early. The engineer ran hot coming in, but hit his mark with impressive accuracy.
After picking up a sizable number of passengers, Conductor Osborne gave the highball and SC-44 4625 slowly accelerated the train out of town, on time at 4:51, heading to it's final destination of St Louis, MO.

Beneath the towering frame of the truck lies a shadowed, mechanical underworld—a labyrinth of steel and sinew, coated in grime and the echoes of long-forgotten roads. The rust-bitten chassis stretches like the ribcage of some sleeping beast, its bolts and rivets holding the weight of countless miles. A web of cables and hoses, slick with oil and dust, pulses with the truck’s lifeblood, whispering secrets of pressure and power. The axles, thick and unyielding, bear the scars of a thousand burdens, while the exhaust pipe, blackened and scarred, exhales the breath of a roaring giant. Here, in the depths of machinery and metal, the road’s fury is absorbed, and the relentless march of time is etched into every groove and weld.
