Seaboard Coast Line GP38-2 #527, flying white "extra" flags with 309's train in tow, is filling the Outside Track with a huge cut of pulpwood empties for use at the 6 pulpwood yards located within less than a mile from the depot          
309's train would handle empty pulpwood cars out of Birmingham and would clean out the huge Coosa Pines paper mill. As a result, it would have a huge train into Lineville that would get smaller and smaller as it neared its Manchester Yard destination.

Robert Farkas General Even with only a partial photo of the locomotive and the partial bridge, there is a feeling that the photo goes off the frame and includes everything that is missing. 12/27/2011 5:54:10 PM
Charles Stookey General Much better than a smoking wedge. 12/28/2011 2:55:44 AM
