Gibson Street |
| Description: |
After crossing the Bogue Falaya into Covington, the ICG Shore Line District ran down East Gibson Street for two and a half blocks before turning north. The northward local is about to cross North Columbia Street and enter the 5.75 degree curve leading to the railroad station. ICG GP38 9542 is the former GM&O 723, and this was one of the very few times I saw a former GM&O unit on this former GM&O branch. The parking lot on the left of the train was in front of an A&P Super Market, and the red brick building beyond there is the U. S. Post Office.The train is a little longer than usual, with 20 cars and a caboose. It has ATSF bulkhead flatcar 94582 for Poole Lumber, ICG 50' box car 516327 for Marsolan Feed, six insulated box cars of beer for the upcoming Labor Day weekend (BN 749009, 747248, ATSF 525287, MP 782085, 775592, 781662), four empty IC pulpwood cars which will be dropped off at Triangle Timber tomorrow (1829, 63660, 1599, 1199), two empty gondolas for the P&W scrap yard (CAGY 13035, SCL 130413), three more gondolas that will got out tomorrow (L&N 171416, 36677?, SCL 130640), caboose 199034, and three empty covered hoppers that were just picked up at USS Agri-Chem (ATSF 300620, IC 765333, ICG 765668). |
