  • In this video, we visit the Norfolk Southern Atlanta South and Griffin Districts. Plenty of rail action promises great entertainment. After watching the morning northbound parade in Stockbridge, GA on the Atlanta South District with four trains (NS 231, NS 282, NS 174, NS 23N) and lots of SD70ACe units, the local GZ04 with GP38-3 and SD40-2 power is caught at North Conley. After an excursion to Constitution (not Covington as mentioned in the video), where massive manifest NS 187 with a UP ET44AH leader shows up, we return to North Conley to see another manifest, NS 368, with eclectic power and also a UP leader go by. Eventually, we switch to the Griffin District, where intermodal NS 221 is caught in Hampton, GA. Enjoy!

    Nice catches of the four trains in Stockbridge, Ga. Thats my old hometown. I spent many Sundays with my stepdad watching trains back in the late 90's to mid 2000's there, near the hwy 138 bridge

    First of all I'd like to wish you and your family a very happy new year. Secondly it's good to see your video again. We all missed your great uploads. I like the locations, especially the first and last. We can clearly see the trains coming and going everywhere. The NS ponies are pretty tidy, but I'm a UP fan, so I enjoy the Armour Yellow engines more. The summer colors, trees and flowers are very nice too. Awesome video sir, thanks for the entertainment.

    This video is awesome! There's this NS Line called the NS Knoxville West End District if you havent heard of it, And there's some cool power you could see on most NS Trains there, Such as UP, BNSF, CSX, And there's also an interlocking/diamond at knoxville located near the old city where its next to a CSX Yard. A good place to probably railfan there is around the farragut and knoxville area, since there is some good spots there that you could find. They also have a yard there called John sevier yard, And another yard called the city yard. John sevier yard is at rutledge pike, And you could find the city yard near the Gay Street bridge at Old city, Knoxville, TN. Love your videos as always!

    Curious as to why the intermodal train had to wait on the other intermodal before leaving Stockbridge? Maybe because it was empty containers and the others were loaded? 4600 was sure clean,was it a new unit or a rebuild? Glad to see you back, looking forward to seeing your videos in 2023.

    • @mbmars01
