This train is about to become an intermodal train with multiple freight engines upfront and 50 or more piggybacks and other freignt cars behind. Southern decided not to join Amtrak and ran intermodal trains (except for the Southern Cresant) that made station stops. See http://railfan44.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=738818 |
