on Jan 27, 1964
by Mike Condren
| In the early 1960s the Reader Railroad in southwestern Arkansas began running mixed trains behind steam. Here we see the engine and the freight cars for its train. |
 |
 |
| In these photos we see the train progressing on its way to Waterloo. |  |
 |
 |
| When we arrive at the station in Waterloo, we see a couple views inside the cab of the locomotive |
 |
 |
| We next see our engine making up its train for the trip back to the refinery to pick up cars. |
 |
| Here we then see engine switching the Barry Asphalt plant at Waterloo, AR, showing the very polluted ground covered with spilled asphalt. |
 |
| Our engine is seen here switching the tank car loading track. |
 |
| We then see some shots of the train on its way back to Reader. |
