NS 50A
Title:  NS 50A
Description:  Two D9-40CW's and two SD60M's lead NS 50A, a southbound unit grain train, through Spring City. A very nice consist, although early in the morning a sister train, 40A featured the Central of Georgia heritage unit. Sadly, she showed up before the sun did. However, none the less, this satisified my craving for a unit grain.

NS 2835
Title:  NS 2835
Description:  NS 196 charges through Spring City, Tennessee about to pass a clear signal displayed on vintage searchlights from the original Southern Railway. Those searchlights aren't the only original piece of the Southern Railway in this picture...trailing third out on the train is a now rare GP38AC of the former Southern. This unit would be set off in Emory Gap about 20 miles north of here for use on the local, NS T36. A D9-40CW leads the charge with an ex-Conrail standard cab SD60, #6700, the class unit second out.
