Remarks & Notes

The grade out of Opelika may be imperceptible to the naked eye but, believe me, it's tough. Four old geeps and a newer GP40 on train 208 are proving that to the doubters. The driver of that Econoline van knows it's going to be a while before 7th Street is again train-free, so he has decided not to wait.
