I agree. A nice variety of stuff and interviews.
The Georgia Central loco traveled through our little town here quite often.
I was sorry to see the GEs go.

Great video, I remember those GE's on the Georgia Central, they made a fine sight in tandem and could move a good sized train along at a good clip, I'd struggle to keep up with them in places where the adjoining highway wound back and forth. Sad they're gone, but that's what always seems to happen when the G&W takes over.
