Walking After Midnight |
| Description: |
Just after midnight, the Columbus switcher pauses for a few moments after getting a track warrant from the KCS to head out to the steel mill with 8718 and 1002 having the honors. It was nice to wee 2 units in fairly matching paint banging them around together, doesn't happen often on this line. |

Catchlng a breeze |
| Description: |
The BNSF 852 local comes into Columbus with the 2172. The brakewoman has the door opened so she and her conductor can enjoy a cool breeze for a moment. They scoped me out a bit until I told them I wasn't a weed weasel.?Just kind of reminds me of myself at work how if everything were done strictly by the book you'd either be there all day or you'd get nothing done. |

THE 7o2! |
| Description: |
The 702 is back at Columbus after serving a stint at West Point for the Prestrage Farm mill as their switcher when their own went down. Now back at Columbus, this old vet faces an uncertain future due to the G&W take over. It's been rumored she will be put up for sale. She came to the C&G in March 1983 after leaving the Southern Railway (SOU {CNTOP} 6246). She's been a bit of a staple for the C&G and railfans alike in her 26 years on the CAGY. Hopefully she gets to stay. But for now as Jim Morrison would say "The Future's uncertain and the end is always near." I hope the line "Let it roll baby roll" holds true for her. |
