The Road to Memphis II - NS & CSX

This video shows 24 hours of action on both the Norfolk Southern and CSX lines into Memphis in June of 2001.  Norfolk Southern was videotaped between Sheffield, AL and Corinth, MS, and CSX between Dickson and Bruceton in west-central Tennessee.  With their east-west orientation these scenic lines are far from being level.  Both single-track lines have seen big increases in traffic in recent years.  With long trains and a mix of manifest, intermodal, and unit trains, the NS and CSX roads to Memphis put on quite a show.  114 minutes.
