The wildflowers provide a brilliant contrast to plainer-than-plain Georgia Railroad GP7 1023. The train is a run-through Cincy-NOLA train that operates on L&N north of Atlanta, and south of Montgomery. In Atlanta, the old geep was added ahead of the L&N power, while a cut of cars and a WP/GARR caboose was added to the rear of the train. All will come off at Montgomery, and the original train will continue to NOLA.
