I head for Mulberry as a starting point. As I get closer I hear a lot
of chatter on the scanner. I have to pick and choose out of the possibilities.
I first head for Nichols to catch up with this dry rock train heading for
Tampa. Power is ex Seaboard SD40-2s still running.
After Nichols, I head back to Mulberry where I just miss this one heading
for Bradley Junction. I run to Achan and catch up with the empty wet rock
train headed by a single SD70M ex EMD demo. The train is probably heading
for Hookers Prairie where the caboose will be used for the long backward
move.
