Coaling tower this time. Here si CSX train #335, a Walbridge to Grand Rapids evening/overnight turn, passing the coaling tower at the grass covered Toledo Terminal engine facility. I have the date on the slide as 8/13/1988 but see I previously posted one as 8/7/1988 which I now think is wrong. NR Tower might correct me since he was there too. The normal assignment for the F units at this time was the the roadrailer that ran out of Detroit but on days off they would sometimes be used on this out and back turn. We would use the 800 tracing number to know if they were in Walbridge or not. And on this day it worked out that they were.

A Tier 4 ET44AH leads a string of CSX power, seen here stopped at the Junta Tower signal in Cartersville, GA.

Due to a barge hitting the bridge at Decatur, AL there were a ton of reroutes across the south with most of them utilizing the Chattanooga and W&A Subs between Nashville and Atlanta. Here's rerouted Memphis to Savannah intermodal I125 (I925 reroute symbol) cruising through north Georgia near Kingston. It sure felt like old times watching a never ending parade of trains.
