Hi hood GP 30 |
| Description: |
One feature both N&W and Southern shared was ordering their second generation power with short high hoods. On most units, it made for a brick like appearance; on the GP 30's, which both roads rostered, it was really different. Here's a short hood view of one of Southern's units on one of two trains working Greensboro. |

Four axle power |
| Description: |
Most of the through freights I saw this day had six axle power. One that didn't was this one, which came south with four 4 axle units. Interestingly for you numbercrunchers, the two units to the right had opposing numbers. Note GP 30, number 2625, and ahead of it, GP 35 2526. A GE rounds out the shot. |
