Remarks & Notes 
The Georgia Road's Hulsey Yard was always an interesting place to see motive power being serviced. Southern Pacific power was common on run-through freights from New Orleans. This scene is completely different today, as this location is now the site of a busy CSX intermodal facility. It's interesting to think that even decades later, this yard still sees run-through power from trains from New Orleans, although the power now consists of the latest six-axle locomotives from SP's successor, Union Pacific.
