Great Walton's Social Circle Branch |
Description: |
The Great Walton's south bound local rumbles across the Alcovy Mtn Rd. crossing in Herndonville Ga. and also in rare form, power leading on the south end of the train. This is normally a reverse move, but on this day there is spare power from the now out of service Covington Branch. |
