By:Jim Satterwhite
Dates:4/20/2010 - 4/22/2010
Album Info:Sid Vaught, Tom Coughman and I met in Hope AR on April 19, 2010 for a three day railroad safari through Arkansas and Oklahoma. Our primary goal was to "bag" operations on the Kiamichi and Arkansas Southern as well as KCS through the mountains of Western Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma. We were quite successful as the uploaded photos show! Enjoy, Beautiful Railroad People all over the world.
