Odd assortment |
| Description: |
An oddball assortment was seen recently on the east end of the old NS yard in Hilton. A pair of SW1504's, a Bayline GP38 still in the classic yellow/green scheme, and a Bayline caboose. Rumor is the Bayline caboose is headed to Arlington GA where some company officials will use it while inspecting track. |

Lots of orange and black |
| Description: |
Power used by GWI subsidiaries CIRR and Hilton and Albany RR is seen in the CIRR yard in Hilton. I think that was me that told you to get the photos of these units in their classic schemes before the corporate scheme became the order of the day...remember?? And while a good looking scheme, a lot of the classic are falling by the wayside. |
