Salisbury, NC. Depot

Salisbury has a very nice Depot. Still being used for Amtrak.

I was at the Depot about 20 minutes when the north bound Amtrak arrived.

Nice depot! Kind of surprising to see the Mission style architecture in NC.

nice Ralph

I was thinkin the same thing.............;)

I’m actually more surprised to see a PH59 behind what appears to be a P40 and not a 42? That style architecture(the station) is not uncommon on the east coast but kinda rare. Nice shots Ralph

Later that afternoon I met this one on the mainline passing Linwood Yard. Same number of cars, one engine. It was moving at a nice clip. You can see the exhaust smoke. Ralph

Looks like the links are bad on all my posts. Bob is switching over the freight sheds. Hopefully it's a temporary situation ;) Ralph

Okay.
