| This is the Palmetto, which originates at 8:00 am in Savannah. The person in the green shirt talking to the engineer is Phillip Shaw, a RR Picture Archives contributor, who is heading north. The car attendent of the first car is walking up, and the other person is unknown but just took a picture of the train. The conductor, who just asked for a brake test, is in the white shirt at the far end of the train. The train is in the north pocket of the station. The tiny black spots on the nose of #11 are deadbugs no doubt accumulated on Saturday's southbound trip. The mainline tracks are to the right of #11's snowplow on the embankment which reduces the chance of them being flooded. |
