Not one, not two, not three, but FOUR KCS SD50's lead NS 67G
Title:  Not one, not two, not three, but FOUR KCS SD50's lead NS 67G
Description:  Four KCS SD50's power loaded ballast train 67Z through Smiths Station Alabama on the Columbus District. The train originated from a quarry in Columbus and is headed for the KCS in Birmingham. For much of the the day the promise of this train seemed to good to be true as we watched the clouds overhead get worse and waited for 3 and half hours after the crew went on duty before we finally heard the dispatcher give him a warrant a 6:00 PM, giving us two hours to chase him to Opelika on a now cloudless sunny day, making our long trip well worth it.
