KCS 4052 south of Beasley, TX |
| Description: |
The whole train is seen as it is stopped waiting for the conductor to flag the FM 1875 grade crossing south of town. When the line opens on Wednesday, there will be a 10 mph slow order at each public grade crossing for all trains until June 29, when that speed will be raised to 25 mph--eventually track speed will be 49 mph for this line, which is in dark territory. |

| Description: |
Arriving at Kendleton, the first revenue through-train passes the north switch for the intermodal terminal yard tracks.
