Viewing Album:  We dont need no education....Union Point 08
 
By:Atlanta Rails
Dates:9/26/2008 - 9/26/2008
Album Info:Took a day off school to help set up my N-scale clubs layout. The Georgia sub was dead as always but seeing a B36-7 leading the local was well worth it. Also included are pictures from the Saturday which was the actual show day. On Friday i saw the local going west and then back east to Camak, and a single double stacker. On saturday i saw 3 coal trains and one CWR train which tied up on the siding.
