SD45s 905 and 900, and GP35 721 at St. Louis, Missouri (date unknown) (Al Chione).

The train is westbound on the Rolla Subdivision just departing the west end of Lindenwood Yard. Just across the bridge is Southeastern Junction. At this point the St. Louis Subdivision connects and turns south toward Memphis.

On the left, under the head end of the train, is the River Des Peres. This is just south of the confluence with Deer Creek. To the right, under the GP35, is Wellington Avenue/Wabash Avenue.

The photo was taken from Interstate 44 and the view is looking northeast.

Special thanks to Mark Davidson.

GP35 715 at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (date unknown).

This photograph was taken just prior to the train crossing South Santa Fe Street. It has just departed the Frisco’s Oklahoma City Yard and crossed the North Canadian River. The photo was taken looking northeast from the Santa Fe Railroad overpass.

After crossing under the Santa Fe, just to the west, the train will run south of the Oklahoma City Union Station. This depot was a joint operation between the Rock Island and Frisco.

Special thanks to Mark Davidson.
