NS'S Alabama Division AGS South District
Title:  NS'S Alabama Division AGS South District
Description:  NS Southbound Freight Train 31V ABS ( Alabama Southern Railroad ) detour running via NS from Birmingham, Al. to Meridian, Ms. or Tuscaloosa, Al. ABS will be detouring via NS for quite a while since 4/27/11 when an EF-5 Tornado destroyed much of Tuscaloosa including a steel trestle in Gordo that was completely destroyed & blown to the ground. These trains run as 30V northbound & 31V southbound, but when I 1st caught the detour ran as an 071, I guess since the detour is long term, possibly a year or longer NS decided to come up with a train symbol of their own
