Teague, Texas was (is) a crew change area for the Rock Island and later BN (currently BNSF). Another area videotaped a lot is Belt Junction, where UP funnels trains from Longview/Palestine/Conroe (Lloyd Yard in Spring) over to Settegast (Houston) and down to the chemical coast. The RI/BN/BNSF crossed the old MOP at Belt Junction.
Keep em coming. I'm from Houston born 95 so I didn't get to see all the crazy changes. Most recent change in Houston was tower 71. Complete redo of the West Belt sub!!!!
I only had one visit to Texas - back in October 1999. I wish that I would able to come down as often as I can... But with kids, they come first. I do plan to come back when I retire... I only had 3 tapes of them but seems that I'm missing one. I knew that I had recorded the swap of pig trains btwn KCS and BNSF and I can't find it. I have a lot of video of CR trains in NYS and CSX/NS in Ohio anyway. Also some video of UP and BNSF west of chicago. I'm still working on most of these.
Amazed at all the traffic at one area. Trains going every which way
