NS power |
| Description: |
NS power used to bring down a coal train is seen resting in the passing track at Hilton. GWI's latest road, the Hilton and Albany Railroad, now operates this section of former CofG/SOU/NS trackage but coal trains to Cedar Springs and Panama City still use NS power. |

NS Hilton turn with big power |
| Description: |
NS local G91 returns from the CIRR yard at Hilton. The units were used to bring a large cut of coal into Albany destined for the Chattahoochee Bay RR at Hilton with an ultimate destination of Panama City FL. The units came on through on the Hilton turn along with about half the coal as the Chattahoochee Bay could only handle 50 cars at a time. |

NS coal train power |
| Description: |
Some of the latest coal train power at Hilton GA is seen tied up on the passing track. With the influx of additional power to the GWI lines in the area it will be interesting to see if NS power is used for Hikton and Dothan coal trains or if GWI power will start handling them from Albany GA. |
