In an unusual turn of events, the TVA plant at Kingston has told NS they do not need the load of coal on 894. They do have a train of empty hoppers they need rid of. So the crew has pulled the tra... (more)

In some nice evening light, the northbound Silver Meteor rolls thru Folkston.

Pushing away. The second unit in NS' order of (just 4000 HP at the time) ES40DCs serves as DPU on 23G this morning. The train will take the siding, just across the Clinch River, to allow 27... (more)

CSX 51 leads a northbound Intermodal thru the Folkston Funnel.

285 glides down the hill, thru Oakdale.

A pair of Dash 9s, including a BNSF "swoosh" repaint, bracket a nice surprise - one of NS's recently acquired ex-UP SD90MACs powering grain loads southbound at Sunbright, TN.

After shoving loaded grain train 56G over the hill into Powell, the power for northbound grain empties train 55G returns to Laurel to recouple to their train, and continue north.

Leaving a trail of coal dust in their wake, the crew of 704 is getting the job done, as they bring the train thru the swag at Pemberton.

15T comes rolling under Western Ave. heading west, with part of the Knoxville skyline in the background.

A meeting downtown. NS 69W cruises eastbound into downtown Knoxville on Main 1, passing a stopped westbound 131 on Main 2. There was a time back in the Southern Railway days, when this rath... (more)

This day's T69 is powered by an Admiral Cab SD40 rebuild, a GP38 (also an Admiral Cab) and a MP15DC. Pretty unusual.
