Southbound sits on the crossing |
Description: |
Because the siding at Kilgore was full of cars and Ora was occupied as well, this southbound ended up waiting here at Woodruff. Not sure why he sat right on the crossing like this, his rear end wasn't even close to a crossing. |

He was following 3 northbounds up from Greenwood. He ended up having to take the siding at Ora whil} the others got to go on to Roebuck to meet a southbound.
