| Remarks & Notes |
| Q027 is southbound crossing the Red River and Red River Valley at Adams, TN on the Henderson Subdivision with a matching trio of General Electric locomotives. The southern section of this bridge was replaced as a result of a bridge collapse on January 27, 1966. A southbound L&N coal train was crossing the bridge when the collapse occurred. No one was injured in the incident as the locomotives had already crossed. The last two cars and caboose stopped before plummeting off the bridge. The new section was opened on February 26, 1966. Pictures of the incident are documented in the L&N’s Memphis Line book by Dennis Mize. |
