Depot at |
Description: |
Seen here is the old CofG depot at Madison GA. The Squaw Creek Southern short line now operates this line from Madison south to Machen GA. Their sole power, a former SP SD40-2T tunnel motor, is seen peaking out from behind the depot.

The Eastbound turn from Hilton GA appears to be tying down on the mainline. One can only assume a law caught crew. This line will soon be operated by a unit of GWI as NS has leased them the section from Albany to Hilton. |
