NS Southbound Local Freight Train A55 ( Birmingham to Boligee, Al. ) passing through Cottondale, Al. on their way to interchange with Alabama & Gulf Coast Railway in Boligee, Al. A38 relief crew boarded A55 at Control Point Fleming in Grimes, Al. after the original A55 crew ran short on time after having delays with the lead unit 4002, nothing but trouble out of these Caterpillar Locomotives thus far, but I sure like the looks of them, especially the conventional cab ones, 4000, 4001, & 4300.
