After leaving Dalton, I decided to make one more stop at Wauhatchie when I heard M882-12 was ready to leave the yard. Then I heard 355 was heading out of town, so I set up hoping to finally get an over & under shot at Wildwood. Though it was three minutes off from the perfect shot, this was still really neat to witness for me. Also note how dirty UP 6450 already is. Location: Steele Road, Wildw...

After getting 29A at Plainville, I rushed to Calhoun to barely get beat by M280-12. I then just got ahead at Resaca where it slowed to meet M583-12, which decided last second to pull down to the signal and block my way. It also didn't help that there was a traffic jam due to a stupid pickup truck that got himself caught between a building and a tanker truck trying to make a right turn. I would ...

Upon leaving Atlanta, my goal was be able to grab the newly elected and painted heritage unit that was the TAG 4851. Despite just seeing it three days earlier, I still wanted to see it on its first run in the lead like dozens of other foamers in the region.
