Train Street Running in Gadsden Alabama - ATN Z390

4-21-10

*CORRECTION* Although I said Q390 in the video, this is actually Z390.

Gadsden, Al - Locust Street

With a little free time after class, I headed to Gadsden to see if anything interesting was going on with NS or the ATN. The scanner crackled to life with "3 step - Z390." Awesome! A train I've wanted to see for a long time! Great SP power up front too!

After a little switching in the yard, I catch the train traveling down the middle of Locust St. and crossing the Coosa river bridge bound for Birmingham.

ATN Z390

LTEX (SP) 5387 SD40T-2

Could that have been Jerry DeBene driving that SD40-T2?

Hello BamaRailfan! I live in Clearwater Florida and we have a street train downtown. I have heard this spooky horn before in my hometown too! Nice channel always cool to meet another railfan!

What was a matter with that kid? Couldn't he have waited for the train to pass?

[BamaRailfan]

@seabulls69 Yes he is a great guy! I miss getting to visit him when they ran through Albertville.
