The classic shot of the KCS at Decatur on the KCS Heavener Sub. The KC to Shreveport freight slowly rolls thru town working up the 1.5% grade out of the Wolf Creek Bottoms. The train is setup 3x1 DP-d with not a real big train. Decatur is located in northwest Arkansas and is at MP 217, still 120 miles to the next crew change at Heavener, OK.
