A pair of BNSF SD70ACe's are waiting in idle for a terminal relief crew to come and pick up the extra section empty Georgia Power coal bucket NS 77Z (Juliette,GA-Memphis,TN/BNSF), and bring it deep into the terminal where the terminal crew will swap out with a outbound Sheffield crew. The demand of low sulpher coal is starting to rise as we're getting close to the end of the 2018 fall season, and winter with it's might is just around the corner, and these Plant Scherer trains seem to get longer by the months. You would think that it doesn't get cold down in the southeast states, but then again it does from time to time.
Railroading is a 24 hour a day business, that never sleep. From sunset to sunrise the railroad must run. These image are taken by some of the best rail photographer out their.
