  • In this video, we cover the entire morning rush of Norfolk Southern trains on the Greenville District of the Piedmont Subdivision at Lula, GA in the wee hours of a crisp day in January. Southbound Amtrak 19 is first in line, and he comes through Lula just before sunrise. Local train P64 consisting only of a solo SD40-2 engine out of Gainesville goes north to do some switching in the area; he'll return solo again a few hours later. We also watch the long intermodal and manifest pairs, 28R/27A and 153/154, respectively. These heavy trains all feature distributed power midtrain. For a change, UP and BNSF add some color to the NS black-and-white. There's a nice mix of EMD and GE power in the video, including SD70ACe, ES44AC, AC4400CW, Dash 9, and AC44C6M locomotives. Enjoy!

    The early morning lights are very nice here. I like this location, we can clearly see the trains in both directions. And when you're up on the bridge, we can check out the engines' details on the roof. As a UP fan I love the different locos just like the cool mid-train helpers. Great work as always, thank you for the quality video.

      Thanks! I was a bit worried, light would be too bad for good footage, but it was okay. I was stunned by the very long shadow of the depot. The sun had really just risen. January is a tricky month for getting good shots. Yeah, the UP and BNSF engines added some nice color.

      Война закончится тогда, когда Вашингтон и его союзники по НАТО прекратят поставки вооружения. Цель запада ослабить Россию. Я видел документы убитых наёмников из Польши, Румынии, Англии, США,Новой Зеландии, Франции. Приехали на сафари, охотится на русских. Теперь гниют в земле Донбасса. У украинской армии почти всё оружие из запада. Западный мир хочет воевать с Россией до последнего украинского солдата.
      Авторитету США будет нанесён сокрушительный удар, когда вся Украина бдет в составе России.
      Желаю вам всего хорошего. Нравится смотреть на поезда.
