Viewing Album:  Squaw Creek Southern and CSX in Madison,GA
 
By:Atlanta Rails
Dates:6/2/2009 - 6/2/2009
Album Info:I finally made it down to Madison to see the Squaw Creek Southern railroad, which has been operating the former CofG between Madison and Shady Dale for almost a year now. I decided to make the trip now as the two lease units are to be sent back in a short time. The ex- CN GP38 was the first production GP38, built as DT&I 200 so i had to get a shot of it before it was sent back to the leaser. Upon arriving in Madison i found the CSX local switcher A722 in a siding east of town, however as i pulled up the engine headed east, so i chased him down to the depot, where he pulled to a stop in front of the parked Squaw Creek power. After Y722 left town the Squaw Creek fired up its engines to switch the Penn Pak feedmill just east of downtown, then running back to the depot light. Thanks guys for the hospitality, i had a great time.

Parallel lines
Title:  Parallel lines
Description:  The Central of Georgia at one time had parallel main lines through the town of Madison. While the Georgia railroad is still a mainline, though not a very busy one, the old CofG has been chopped in half, with the usable section of track ending right past where the two lines diverge. Trains are now limited to 10 mph due to the poor track condition
