Title:  NS'S Alabama Division 3B North District R Line
Description:  NS Southbound Local Freight Train A21 ( Birmingham to Wilton, Al. Turn ) passing through Morgan, Al. with a pair of classic former Southern Railway GP50s leading a GP59, Im sure in the not too distant future all these GP50s will be history as they will be rebuilt into GP38-3s with chopped noses, Ive been told that there are only 30 GP50s left on NSs roster so time is running out for these classic locomotives

NS'S Alabama Division AGS South District
Title:  NS'S Alabama Division AGS South District
Description:  NS Northbound Local Freight Train AB07 pulling the high line in Birmingham, Al. The lead unit 4154 is a rare GP38AC of which NS has only a handful left & will soon be extinct, either rebuilt into GP38-3's or scrapped. NS & CSXT use the high line to interchange, but theres been talk of interchanging via the 50th Street Branch that branches off at Woodlawn Jct. just south of 50th Street then would connect at McWane Pipe & run up the drill track to Boyles Yard
