Viewing Album:  A Final Ride with My Dewdy
 
By:David Barrentine
Dates:1/5/2010 - 1/5/2010
Album Info:1/5/2010 my wish came true. My Deddy (Dad) will be retiring soon from the Bay Line R_. As a child I would ride the train all the time with him. I was hoping to get to ride with him one last time before he retires. I wasn't too optomistic with the restrictions now a days. So you can believe I was quite excited when he called Monday evening and told me I could ride with him. I hopped in the truck and off I went on the hour and a half drive to get to my parents house. These are a few pic's I took riding the Chattahoochee Bay RR from Dothan, AL to Hilton, GA and back. Some aren't the best, but I was doing&double duty video taping and taking pictures at the same time.

LDRR 1707
Title:  LDRR 1707
Description:  After picking up a load of cars in the CIRR yard, we came back to the NS yard to build the train. As we ran up the CIRR tracks the 2883 derailed. That was a nerve racking moment to say the least. Luckily the 2883 jumped back on the rails, (how I have no idea). As we checked the rails and the locomotives, we noticed that the 1707 was just barely on the rails. So we had to uncouple the 2883 and the 1707. Deddy moved the 1707 back down the track which lined up on the rails just fine. We then had to move the 2883 on to the mainline. i took this shot as we were passing.
