Walking After Midnight |
| Description: |
Just after midnight, the Columbus switcher pauses for a few moments after getting a track warrant from the KCS to head out to the steel mill with 8718 and 1002 having the honors. It was nice to see 2 units in fairly matching paint banging them around together, doesn't happen often on this line. |

Ever Have The Feeling You Are Being Watched? |
| Description: |
As I'm getting ready to get my pics of the 2880 heading to Artesia, KCS personel drove by and strained their necks then turned around to do it again. Suprisingly I wasn't run off. Artesia was once railfan friendly but after KCS came to town that pretty much came to an end. |

THE 7o2! |
| Description: |
The 702 is back at Columbus after serving a stint at West Point for the Prestrage Farm mill as their switcher when their own went down. Now back at Columbus, this old vet faces an uncertain future due to the G&W take over. It's been rumored she will be put up for sale. She came to the C&G in March 1983 after leaving the Southern Railway (SOU {CNTOP} 6246). She's been a bit of a staple for the C&G and railfans alike in her 26 years on the CAGY. Hopefully she gets to stay. But for now as Jim Morrison would say "The Future's uncertain and the end is always near." I hope the line "Let it roll baby roll" holds true for her. |

Delta Western Facility |
| Description: |
The Delta Western feed mill is one of the C&G's largest customers and the largest period on the "west end" of the line. They make mainly feed for numerous catfish ponds in the region and the company has been a loyal customer since the mid 1980's. Job 48 eases by the mill on the main but will cut off and do a few pick ups and set outs. DW owns a former C&G CF7, the 808, which they use for interplant switching and it is still adorned in its full CAGY "John Deer Green" scheme, no paint outs or mark outs to indicate its new owner. |

This pic turned out far from what I had hoped. I walked to this spot to check it out and decided against it but as I got ready to leave to another location he came around the corner so I stuck it out. This is CAGY Job 45 returning from the Sever Corr steel mill at Bent Oak. |

CAGY 3310 |
| Description: |
An ex MP/UP/EMDX/GSWR SD40-2 heads thru Columbus. Just a few years ago a 6 on the CAGY would have been a sight not seen since 1984 after the last Baldwin was retired but here another 6 axle bangs the iron again. |
