Pair of C39-8's, nose to nose with long hood leading, blowing exhaust, 113 freight cars and two Southern Railway cabooses. Great subject matter, great sound, great video! Thanks for posting and sharing this classic, Greg

C39's back when they ran them long hood out. Hard to believe they are gone now. Nice Southern cabs too. Thanks Greg!
