Q647 Passing New Control Point
Title:  Q647 Passing New Control Point
Description:  One of the more dramatic photo angles is just north of Hebardville & south of Jamestown. As part of CSXT's major track realignment project thru Waycross, they are adding a double track to at least as far as this point, which should become "Jamestown" unless they plan to continue the new track across the creek (in the middle of the train). Grade for new track can be seen to right of pilot.

Q541 Running "The Back Way"
Title:  Q541 Running "The Back Way"
Description:  This is the epicenter of the Waycross track realignment. Traditionally, this has been "The Back Way" in & out of Rice Yard between Lang & Nicholls Street. It will soon become the main line as you can see. Two road crossings have been eliminated here so far. The look of this area is going to change dramatically. Will be interested to see how they accomodate the overpass I am standing on!

Title:  Someday We'll Be Together
Description:  Q613 departs Rice Yard snaking around Jax Wye & Waycross Recycling. The cabs of former CSXT C30-7's seen in the foreground will likely someday be replaced in the boneyard by those of what Q613 has today.
