Eastern Railroad Discussion > 2025 Mississippi Trip Day 2- Irondale Alabama

Hello All,     
      
I made a trip down south in October. Here are the photos from my trip.

Before heading to Irondale, I found The East Tennessee Railroad in Johnson City, Tennessee.

Nice catch on the ETRY. Not uncommon for them to be done with their work in all of a couple of hours. It's a line that seemingly "doesn't run" to some.

Thanks. Yeah, I really didn't know if anything would be running. I happened to be in the right place at the right time.
