I stumbled on some more Southern stuff buried deep down in the archives. Didnt figure anyone would mind a few more :P
A pair of Southern SW1500's are paired up with the remains of a Alco S2 to work the hump at Linwood Nc. 1988

A road train is setting off Southern 5112 at Lawrenceburg Ky. The 5112 will be used for power on local train #98-99 (now T19) This was 1989 or 1990.

Southern GP 35 #2661 is tied up on the oil track at Lexington KY in 1988. This would have been the power for train #22, the local to Versailles Ky over the LL branch. Dig that blue Caddy!

Bravo Emmett! Keep up the good work. I always love to see images from the days when I was too young to appreciate or understand. ;)
Nice images EB. Linwood is close to my heart/location, though Ive never been able to actually find and get inside the yard.
Nice shots Emmett; while admittedly I?m not a true SOU fan (worked for N&W :)), I do like the paint scheme used on SOU's hood units.
I agree Emmett, great looking stuff. I always enjoy seeing good ole Southern power. I was too young to ever remember seeing much, if any power wearing tuxedos.
Bart, next time you and I go railfanning, remind me to take you into Linwood. Neat place but you can't hang out too long in there.
