Fantastic shot Tim!

Thanks Jim I appreciate the compliment on the shot. The line does become GSMR at milepost 47 but they have trackage rights to MP45 for freight. I work for them as a brakeman and our track crew will set on at the interchange and inspect track to MP47 sometimes. The Murphy Branch is fun line to take pictures of and work on. A lot of grades that keep you on your toes and also make for great photos.

The line becomes the Smoky Mountain RR just past Sylva. Congratulations on a front page placement.
