Looking West on UPRR         
The view facing west, toward the end of the UPRR Warren sub at Warren, Ark. In the center foreground you can see first, the turnout to the left (south leg of wye connection to AD&N mainline, next, the turnout to the right (north leg of wye connection to the AD&N mainline) Further away you can see the AD&N crossing of the UP mainline, which is the straight leg of the wye. The train moved forward to the south leg of the wye, and onto the AD&N mainline for the southbound trip to Crossett. Interestingly, at the crossing diamond, the UP mainline was so much higher than the AD&N mainline approaches that the belly of the Rock Island Budd car barely cleared the tops of the rails.
