Andy, I hadn't heard about the Athens line. I guess CSX had another route to get there.  It is amazing how many coaling towers still stand

yes, they use the ex-Seaboard Abbeville sub from Atlanta to Greenwod. Was always just a  branchline built in the days when Cotton was king. The Family Lines found it easir to service with the Abbeville sub w/o extra and there really wasn;t anyother online business except at Athens so it went away in the early 80's.

First it was the IC boxcars . . . and now KCS hoppers.  I don't make that much money!  But SWEET!

OK- Both EL and B&LE cars in the same month as the Terminally Ill?!?!?  And what has to be the first use of the word 'ithsmus' in a train hobby ad.

Banner month, Craig!

Those DRGW 86' cars look SO good. A little "early" for what I run, but I'm sure that a couple will end up on my rails ;D
A "western modeler" that also runs NS.
