Murica Monday, sadness edition Part 2

With the closure of the Canton mill, scenes like this will be soon a thing of the past... On another beautiful winter day a quartet of SD45 carbodys roar upgrade with a unit coal train for the paper mills power plant in tow. This would have been a much better shot if I hadn't been greedy and came straight here. By the time I had run up the steep hill the train was almost upon me, no time for the necessary brush cutting to open up the full view of the bridge. Anyways, nothing to be done about that now.... For my friends on the east coast, if you can get here, do it. One of the last great railroading shows in the Southeast is about to disappear.
