Brave Last Days

            The KCS Local heads back to the NS mainline after interchanging cars with the IMRR at Shops Yard.  

With the CP-KCS merger set to take effect on April 14th, this will be one of my last shots of the Kansas City Southern still operating as an independent company.  I wish the merger would bring some new developments to the Springfield line, but the merger application indicates that CPKC will continue the status quo of not much of anything.
