Got him  Contributor's Pick!       
Just like the day before, I heard the horn and took off. I wasnt able to catch the train in Siloam, but did get ahead to get the shot here on Main St in Gentry. My luck ran out about two minutes later, when I pulled out onto Ark 59. I made it up to CP North Gentry easily enough, then got bogged down in a back up behind a guy in a tractor who decided 1630 on a Monday was a good time to go out onto a busy two lane road with few passing zones, doing every bit of 20 MPH. When I caught up to him, I could still see the 261 train pulling away, and my chance of getting a shot at Decatur or Gravette going away quickly.
