NS 1065 - SD70ACe
NS 1065, the Savannah & Atlanta heritage unit, trails on an empty UP ethanol trail rolling across the south side of Houston. The train, headed from Galveston to Iowa for another load to export, had a trio of NS motors up front. Unfortunately the coolest one was not in the lead.
The Savannah & Atlanta was a 142-mile railroad from Savannah to Camak, GA, where it connected with the Georgia Railroad to provide service to Atlanta. The S&A was bought by the Central of Georgia in 1951, which was in turn acquired by the Southern Railway in 1963.
