|
| The train-watching platform at Folkston, Georgia... | ||
|
| Our first train arrived soon after we did: a pair of big GE's pulling a unit coal train south to Florida. | ||
|
| A green signal tells us we have a north-bound train coming on track two. | ||
|
| And here he comes... | ||
|
| It's not often I see one of these at home. Former Soo Line "ColorMark" covered hopper, now carrying grain for the Illinois, Chicago & Eastern. | ||
|
| Hot Intermodal cargo trumps the mixed freight, so UP 9624 hauls her boxes past the 9043 | ||
|
| Once the intermodal is out of the way, a clear signal is given and the 9043 is once more on her way north. As she is powered up, she gives us the signature GE plume of black smoke... | ||
|
| Gaining speed as she crosses Martin Street... | ||
|
| Heading north under threatening skies... | ||
|
| Another lovely Union Pacific patch job. Notice the star that dots the second "i'... very professional. | ||
|
| Q174 is south-bound on track One with UP power lined up elephant-style... | ||
