ABS Job 121 heads back to their yard in Tuscaloosa, Al..after a days switching at Nucor Steel in Holt, Al. ABS Job 121 can be seen early in the morning in Tuscaloosa getting their train ready for Nucor Steel in Holt, Al. They usually leave Tuscaloosa early morning heading for Nucor Steel in Holt, Al. where they work a few hours more or less then head back to Tuscaloosa. The light condition| were good for the trip to & from Holt, Al. It was better for the trip back to Tuscaloosa on this day. The ABS follows the NS Alabama Division AGS South District for about 4 miles before breaking away from NS toward Holt, Al. Light angles are very good in the morning until they break off from NS, then when they head back to Tuscaloosa in the afternoon the light angles are great for the trip back. Its very classy ABS has repainted a few of their GP38-2s in a commemorative paint scheme for Alabama Crimson Tjde Football, love their colors. Pulling For The Tide, Roll Tide

Bernie Feltman General Excellent photo, William. Catch this at sundown against a orange and blue sunset and you'd really have a great photo !! 10/26/2011 10:28:25 AM
William H. Davis Jr. General Thanks Bernie, I like blue, don't like orange that much. Either way, I'm just a fan of trains & attractive looking paint schemes, I really could care less about college sports, I like pro sports. 10/26/2011 1:48:44 PM

Bradley Bates General Nice shot. What time do they normally leave Tuscaloosa? 12/21/2011 12:02:13 AM
William H. Davis Jr. General Thanks Bradley, All I can say is early morning, if you get their at sunrise you'll see it, but last I heard these units got split up & have been seen on the Artesia Local, so no guarantee you'll see this power on 121 & as a team since they got split up 12/21/2011 12:09:18 AM
