[25] NS Trains in the Center of the Web, Part 1/3, Railfanning Macon GA, 02/20/2016 ©mbmars01

Like threads of a spider web point to its center, several Norfolk Southern lines meet in the heart of the Georgia Division in Macon GA. The big Brosnan yard generates a lot of traffic and makes this region a happy place for railfans. Macon GA, located just 80 miles southeast of Atlanta, is one of the oldest railroad nodes in the country and the industrial area that embraces the yard breathes more than 150 years of railroad history. Enjoy part 1 of this series of train videos recorded in Macon and its surroundings. [© 2016 MBMARS Productions. Exclusive rights for KZbin channel "mbmars01" only.]

How did I not find this Macon series til now??? oh well, time to spend the next 2 hours of my day watching this...

[@mbmars01]

+Milepost 282 Productions Haha :) Take your time. There's an entire playlist on my channel covering all my visits to Macon. Macon is one of the hot spots of rail action in GA. Hope you'll enjoy!

[@tbfilms3427]

haha, i have so far. finishing up the second vid lol tbh, this is just a lot of research cause Im going to Macon next summer.

[@mbmars01]

That's cool. As a railfan you'll enjoy it. You need to be mobile, though, in order to be able to visit the different districts and find the trains at all those nice locations you see in the videos. It is not unusual that while the south end of the yard is busy you hang around on the north end when nothing goes on there. But I'm sure you'll like it.

mbmars01 Yea, I enjoy moving from spot to spot anyway. Makes things more interesting...

A very fine detailed video, with interesting selection of power. Great job Robert

[@mbmars01]

+shnimmuc Thank you! Glad you like this way of putting a railroad video together.

[@seiscat1]

Oh, deer! and some nice action too!

[@mbmars01]

+seiscat1 Haha, but deer life near a busy railroad line is dangerous. I often see animals crossing tracks and I'm concerned they might get injured or killed by a train.
