Pulling stored cars         
You are seeing the last train to operate over the former CofG line between Eufaula and Union Springs. The line has been long abandoned at this time but was used for storing boxcars. Around 1986 NS began moving the boxcars off this line due to it's deteriation. The last of the stored cars were pulled out by 4 EMD's. Seen here are the 4 EMD's headed east toward Eufaula.

Bernie Feltman General Would you believe, if they stopped for lunch, the engines would be overgrown with kudzu when they returned. Well, in less than a week, maybe 9/12/2010 4:29:36 PM
Nick Henderson General Neat series! Too bad for the fate of all those boxcars, but GP30 #2594 still survives today. It is owned by the SERM and is currently leased to TVRM. 9/12/2010 4:58:27 PM
