Rio Grande Explorations

Fairbanks (Monroe), Louisiana

Arkansas, Louisiana & Mississippi Railroad 
Fairbanks, LA - MP 11.3 

I was working at my company's Fairbanks, LA office and standing outside when the southbound train came by. Based on my previous visits, the ALM runs a southbound to Monroe in the morning and a northbound in the early afternoon. 

The video isn't great. It was shot with an iPhone on-the-fly... and, unfortunately, into the sun. I couldn't cross the track to put the sun at my back in fear that the train would inexplicably stop (it was already creeping along) and cut me off from the office. Would be hard to explain...
