KC Max Floyd Roast
I made a road trip to KC to visit my old broadcast friends from my days at KY-102. The occassion was to honor Max Floyd, the legendary Program Director of the station and the most fun I ever had working in radio those four years from 1977 to 1981. Never took train photos back then, but I've tried to make amends since then. This weekend was no exception as I was able to shoot the old Frisco main line in suburban KC's Johnson County. Nowadays its a heavy-duty BNSF tonnage route, and UP takes a ride courtesy of their acquisition of the Katy, which had trackage rights here. I also took a revisit of the old Santa Fe Ottawa sub. Then Sunday saw BNSF and NS action in mid-Missouri on the trip home. That means the old Santa Fe Transcon, the west end of the Marceline sub and the NS old Wabash route.
