NS A45, seen here in a blurry shot, is passing the tail end of NS 137 at Lipsy on the NS P-Line between Sylacauga and Bon Air, AL. Westbound NS 137 held the main while Eastbound A45 took the siding, which is the norm on this line. This is the former Central of Georgia Columbus (GA) Division...
NS 137, hot on the heels of NS 921, has its turn at the MP366 sign. NS 137 was held up behind the 921 for a meet with the east bound NS 336 back in town in Alexander City, AL.
NS 921 Herzog rock train shuffles past the MP366 milepost between Alexander City and Kellyton, AL heading West with several tons of ballast. This is the NS (Central of Georgia) P-Line between Columbus, GA and Birmingham, AL.
After meeting the opposing NS 336 in downtown, NS 921 Herzog train continues on West across Commerce Drive and along side Washington Street in Alexander City, AL.
With three trains in downtown at once, you can better believe that there were many very unhappy motorists (and one VERY happy photographer!) in downtown Alexander City, AL. Here, NS 336 is just feet away from the West end switch preparing to take the sideing for a meet with the NS 921 Herzog...
With the almost completely shuttered Russell Corp. in the background, NS 336 negotiates the big curve heading into downtown Alexander City, AL as it prepares for a meet with two West bound trains in town. Old #1 mill behind the train has been standing for many, many years.
On yet _another_ dreary Alabama day, NS 336 does its best to brighten up the scene with this great looking pumpkin BNSF motor. This scene is at the MP364 on the NS P-Line in Alexander City, AL. The 336 is headed East into downtown for a meet with two West bound trains, the NS 921 and the NS 137.
Pulling the steep grade up from the Lake Martin (Tallapoosa River) trestle, NS 921 approaches the crest of the hill on the East end of Alexander City, AL. This is a loaded Herzog Ballast Train heading West towards Birmingham on the NS P-Line on the Central of Georgia Alabama Division Birmingham Sub.
In this older shot from several years ago, NS A45 with a long string of empty wood chip gons pulls slowly by the King signal in Sylacauga, AL. A45 is a daily local turn that originates in Sylacaua and heads to Norris Yard in Irondale and back again.
On yet ANOTHER dreary rainy day in Alabama, NS 334 is seen here blasting through Kellyton, AL on the NS (Central of Georgia) P-Line heading East to Columbus, GA. Alabama and the whole Southeast has had way more than it's share of rain this '09-'10 Winter! Enough already!
