Norfolk Southern has a freight only track running right through Columbus, Georgia on the street. It runs from their yard, right past the Government Center, onto a bridge over the Chattahoochee river, and into Alabama. NS runs a lot of freight at night (those who know downtown Columbus GA will figure out there's not much in the way of auto traffic then) to the industrial park in Phenix City and to the MEADWESTVACO plant to the south. The trains run at about ten miles an hour, the engineer always leans on his horn all the way, and I still haven't figured out whether they pay any attention to traffic lights on the street or not. <br /> <br />Erik
