Description: |
Photo dedicated in memory of Mr. Brad Smith, Trainmaster of Vicksburg Southern Railroad and previous Trainmaster of Alabama Southern Railroad (Tuscaloosa), who passed away in 2009. Our thoughts and prayers are for his wife and children, and co-workers at WATCO. Not only was Brad an experienced railroad professional of 18 years, he was also a gifted photographer and a friend to railfans in the Tuscaloosa area. Photo: Westbound ABS "Artesia" train at old GM&O milepost 68 near edge of Coker, Alabama. ABS extended the yard limit way out here, several miles from the yard. The white portion of the sign is KCS heritage. Photo sometime in 2007 I believe. |

CSX train Q522-06, while stopped on the main track, was struck by CSX Rail Train W019-27 |
Description: |
CSX Rail Train W019-27, previously tied down in the Dudley Siding, rolled out of the siding after the air brakes leaked off and the handbrakes failed to hold the train on the 1.21% descending grade. The crew of Q522-06, having just boarded the Alabama Southern interchange train bound for CSX Boyles Yard at Birmingham, was receiving their track authorization from the CSX train dispatcher when they noticed the road crossing lights just in front of the locomotive activate. Upon seeing this, the crew jumped from their locomotive. The complete report can be seen at: http://www.fra.dot.gov/downloads/safety/Accident_Investigation/2007/hq200776.pdf |

NS Southbound Freight Train 31V ABS ( Alabama Southern Railroad ) detour running via NS from Birmingham, Al. to Meridian, Ms. or Tuscaloosa, Al. ABS will be detouring via NS for quite a while since 4/27/11 when an EF-5 Tornado destroyed much of Tuscaloosa including a steel trestle in Gordo that was completely destroyed & blown to the ground. These trains run as 30V northbound & 31V southbound, but when I 1st caught the detour ran as an 071, I guess since the detour is long term, possibly a year or longer NS decided to come up with a train symbol of their own |
