[Weiberts]

Where exactly is this? Is it in the town of Chattanooga.

I like the train with the classic power. The closest thing to old like that ive seen on NS would be two GP38-2's with high noses. Ive also seen one of the last still LMSX painted locos parked at the same place those GP38-2's run

The train with ns/cr 3392 was 349.

@JasonsStories i don't know, i have only railfanned there once. yes, it was raining at the end and the train exiting the yard when the BNSFs come through is an MP15DC switching out cars, no clue where he was headed

@JasonsStories The CNO&TP Second Division sees up to 54 a day, this combined with the Crescent Corridor should average out at about 70 trains a day, of course 54 trains a day on the CNO&TP was recorded in a better economy too.
