NS Eastbound Vehicle Train 270 ( Birmingham to Lincoln, Al. Honda Plant ) passing through 2nd Avenue on NA #2 Main with a pair of Warbonnets for power, as dirty, faded, & peeling many of these Warbonnets are its still a treat to see them still earning their keep on BNSF. Todays 270 was running light engines to the Honda Plant in Lincoln, Al. so I opted to get ground level in a curve to do my patented deception train shot that I like to do when theres no train being pulled

NS Eastbound Steam Excursion 951 steams through Brookside, Al. on the way back to Birmingham, Al. after making a trip to Parrish, Al. For the past 2 years the Southern Railway 2-8-0 #630 has made excursions to Parrish & Wilton, Al. I sure hope NS continues the steam program for many more years, but we all know it will not last forever, but at least for the time being we can all enjoy these classic steam locomotives pulling excursions around the NS system

NS Eastbound Steam Excursion 951 steams through Coalburg, Al. on their way back to Birmingham, Al. after making a trip to Parrish, Al. I hated the crossties cluttering the right of way here, but not like I could move them, I almost decided to skip this shot because of the crosstie clutter ruining the shot. For the past 2 years the Southern Railway 2-8-0 #630 has made excursions to Parrish & Wilton, Al.

Description:
CSXT Southbound Doublestack Train Q181 ( Birmingham, Al. to Atlanta, Ga. Fairburn Intermodal Facility ) stopped at 2nd Avenue in Birmingham, Al. waiting on a signal to proceed to get onto home rails of CSXT. These trains Q181, Q183, Q185, Q184, Q186, & Q180 interchange to & from BNSF at East Thomas Yard & run on the NS Alabama Division NA West End District for a few miles to get to & from the CSXT where they run to LaGrange, Ga. then north from there to the Fairburn Intermodal Facility. Warbonnets are a rarity these days so even though this one was in sad shape in the paint department I took it anyway, numberboards are also retardedly mismatched
