Gust Front Inbound

The eastbound Georgia Central railroad road freight is just minutes ahead of a fast moving storm front as the train approaches Orland, Georgia. Shortly after the train passed this location they would be held up for hours as a large tree fell across the main and blocked their passage. In recent years Georgia Central has acquired a fleet of secondhand General Electric B32-8 locomotives. These old -8's may not be the high hood U23B's of a decade ago, but they sure sound close... It's great to see older GE power make a return to GC even if it is in orange...

 

Thanks for looking!
