Long Live the KCS
Title:  Long Live the KCS
Description:  My wife & I made a trip back to South Texas after moving to Conroe almost a year ago & our route back just happened to take us alongside the CPKC Rosenberg Sub where I caught this NB empty grainer sliding into the yard at Kendleton. Ill never tire of the KCS "southern belle" paint, even though it looks bad on so many locomotives already.
