All Aboard - Norfolk Southern Atlanta to Chattanooga

Purchase at -- www.greenfrog.com
The Norfolk Southern Georgia Division runs 148 miles from Atlanta, Georgia to Chattanooga Tennessee. The line began as the Selma, Rome and Dalton Railroad in 1869. Later the route was owned by the Southern Railroad until it's merger with the Norfolk & Western produced today's Norfolk Southern.

This route begins at Inman Yard, 6 miles Northwest of Atlanta, and runs to Chattanooga's DeButts Yard. As one of the heaviest traffic rail lines in the South, it hosts over 24 trains each day.

The viewer will see Powder River unit coal trains on their way to and from the world's largest coal fired power plant, molten sulfur unit trains, and the 'Triple Crown Roadrailer service.

All types of modern freight traffic will roar by behind the latest NS power as well as Union Pacific, and Kansas City Southern pool locomotives. As a special treat a 1991 New Georgia Railroad steam fan trip is shown running on this line.

I did my phase 1 and 3 conductor training at the Norfolk Southern training facility in Mcdonough GA. We visited Howell Wye which has endless train activity and the Brosnan hump yard in Macon, GA. Norfolk Southern is a very strict run railroad and is run almost military style. They dont play around with safety!
