Southern power at Spencer | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

kgdjpubsOGR Forum Member

National Train Day at the North Carolina Transportation Museum in Spencer, NC found some visiting power from Norfolk Southern in the form of Southern Railway SD40 #3170. Late afternoon clouds and showers gave way to some glorious sunshine. A small photo freight was operated in the late evening, and then a lineup of four Southern diesels for the night photo session. The former Southern Railway maintenance facility serviced the diesel fleet for a while after steam operations were discontinued, so for a brief time, all was right in Spencer again.

Kevin, those are some great shots! I love the Southern Tuxedo paint scheme!

Do you know who owns the Southern SD40?

Thanks you for posting,

Don
