    Union Pacific Big Boy 2021 Tour, The Big Boy made its way across Arkansas on August 26, 2021, into the Union Pacific North Little Rock Terminal. Like the sunset, my journey begins as my friend Jim Pearson and I chase this large steam locomotive over the next two days to Ellis Grove, Illinois just north of Chester.

  • BNSF 6718 GE ES44C4

    I got this shot of Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway BNSF 6718 GE ES44C4 as fellow railfan Jim Pearson and I paced this local on the BNSF River Subdivision at Joiner, Arkansas, on June 2, 2020 and few more times as we headed northeast on US-61.

    We left Madisonville, Kentucky at 4am and headed for Memphis, Tennessee, for a 22 hour railfanning trip through Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Missouri, and Illinois, for a round trip of 554 miles in one day. A long, but very productive trip for us both. 

    After I got this shot, I did a pacing video of BNSF 6718 with my iPhone and will be posting it soon, so keep an eye out!
