Kansas City railfan safari I
I called Kansas City home from 1974-81. I lived within yards of the Frisco main and made numerous trips to nearby Holliday, KS., to watch ATSF action west out of Argentine Yard. And when that got boring, I could always cross the river to Bonner Springs, Ks., and catch the endless parade of UP & ROCK action there. Too bad I did not own a camera, I never knew people actually took pictures of trains back then. But, I try to make up for some of the lost opportunity on this weekend getaway to the other American RR capital-Kansas City. And, the weather was great for February--sunny and in the 50s--which netted some nice action at various hotspots around the Metro.
