The Rio Grande enters KC |
| Description: |
The December 1982 merger of the MP and UP led the DRGW to request, and receive, trackage rights over the MP from Pueblo CO to Kansas City MO. The road would use this arrangement for only five years when its own merger with the SP made the routing unncessary. Here Rio Grande GP40-2 3121 leads a pair of SD40T-2s past Sheffield Tower before turning north towards the KCS/MILW Joint Agency, where DRGW trains terminated. |

Dark Clouds and a Tattletale |
| Description: |
This weathered tattletale used to protect CGW crews as they approached the MO92 bridge at Beverly, MO. At one time a tower stood by the bridge to control the Rock Island/CGW crossing with the Burlington. By the time this picture was taken this was the last portion that had not been removed: it too would soon be pulled up. |

Tied up |
| Description: |
Famous as the home of the James Gang, Kearney MO at one time was on the CB&Q Kansas City to Chicago mainline; that changed in 1952 when the "Q" opened a cutoff to the east that saved 22 miles over the original route. In 1962 the line north of Kearney was abandoned to Cameron and the small Missouri town has been at the end of a branch ever since. Here we see the Kearney local, out of North KC, tied up for lunch. Power is GP15-1 1387 and GP9 1863. |
