    *IF YOU'RE GONNA READ THE DESCRIPTION, READ IT BEFORE YOU WATCH THE VIDEO**
    Well, I was going to meet Joe at the caboose, but I saw some MOW equipment farther down the line, so we go down to see what they were doing, coincidentally we saw this local on the way down, but it turned out they were doing nothing except going somewhere to be stored temporarily. After turning around at Kmart, we head back to the caboose and decide to chase the local to the interchange yard on the Caney Fork & Western short line hoping to see(well, at least I was hoping) to see the ex-Conrail B23-7 the CF&W has a long with two GP9s in CF&W paint. We didn't see the ex-Conrail unit and the crew didn't even offer me a cab ride. Oh well, that's the downside of being tall and 14, everyone thinks you have the stereotype of a jackass-don't-care-about-nothing attitude placed on teenagers LOL. After we came back from chasing the train we headed to the caboose to check if Joe was there, and he wasn't though but Parks and Recreation was. I decided to head home since I had a bunch of stuff with me (scanner, camera, chair, food), and was worried about having to go the bathroom and didn't want to have to lug it all with me or risk leaving it there, which would not turn out well. Anyways, hope you enjoyed this.

    TSRR is the Tennessee Southern Railroad . They have a line ex L&N from Columbia, TN to Florence, AL and another line from Columbia, TN to Pulaski, TN about 120 miles all together. They have a colorful red, white and blue paint scheme on their GP10 locomotives. i found one video on youtube recently that was titled TSRR.

    I don't think the GP30 is a road slug cause the slugs don't have people in them so it must be a working unit.

      The GP30 is a slug. I have operated one. There is no prime mover in them. All the power comes from the GP40-2
