Video Not Working? Fix It Now

2 Notes - 1) Missed a caption for NS 282, that's the train that says "My Title" 2) forgot to add it in the video, but at the 48:30 mark, listen as NS 26Q calls in trespassers filming on the tracks, as they pass under McDaniel Street in "The Gulch." I took a day off work, a MUCH NEEDED day off, of a couple days, and chose to railfan on this Friday, October 18th, 2019, at CP Spring/Circle, on the south side of Downtown Atlanta. It was a cool, breezy day, warmed up a bit after lunch time, for a little while, but that didn't last long. At least the rails stayed warm enough with train traffic, as I caught 15 different trains between 8:30AM-5PM. 0:20 i10 (Extra 210) awaiting a signal 8:43AM NS C44-9W 9316 NS SD70ACe 1148 1:43 NS 295 elephant style 8:47AM NS AC44C6M 4190 NS ES44DC 7515 Note - the blue Hub Group "Cause Container" near the front of the train at 3:40 4:48 NS i10 departs behind a northbound 9:20 NS Local GE44 southbound, long hood forward around run 8 10:28AM NS SD33ECO 6220 13:21 NS 26A 10:48AM NS AC44C6M 4185 NS C44-9W 9557 17:33 NS 177 11:04AM NS SD70ACe 1206 NS C44-9W 9251 NS ET44AC 3647 23:33 CSX Q198-18 11:49AM CSX ES44AH 977 Yn3b CSX ES40DC 5286 Yn3 31:34 NS 27A 12:24PM NS ET44AC 3621 NS C44-9W 9673 36:35 NS 282 elephant style 12:47PM NS AC44C6Ms 4102 & 4173 41:51 NS Local P51 Southbound, only the lead engine online NS ES44AC 8104 Lehigh Valley Heritage, K5HL NS C44-9W 9855 NS AC44C6M 4119 45:40 NS 26Q with 172 platforms 1:38PM NS C44-9W 9302 NS AC44C6M 4032 53:51 NS Local GE03 Northbound, all long hood forward 2:25PM NS SD33ECOs 6222 & 6223 Note - the SSW "Golden West Service" Boxcar 67938 in the consist, I shot this same boxcar the last time I was here 57:25 NS GE03 shoving south to South Yard 01:00:53 CSX Mainline Local A744-18 with 101 Cars 2:47PM CSX ES40DCs 5468 & 5243 Both Yn3 CSX AC4400CW 170 Yn3b 01:06:48 NS 732 in Run 8 with 135 Hoppers Southbound Loaded Scherer Coal Train 2:53PM BNSF SD70ACes 9064 & 8548 (loud turbocharger) CREX ES44AC 1401 DPU BNSF AC4400EV 5720 H2, Pre-Production GEVO, DPU 01:12:46 NS 291 with 112 Platforms/Cars 3:33PM NS C44-9W 9976 K5LA NS AC44C6M 4059 01:19:01 NS 230 4:34PM NS C44-9Ws 9948 & 9700 NS SD70ACes 1018 & 1052 NS GP59 4627
