It's been a while since we have posted anything! Here is a photo of our last open house in October. Here is 5780 heading east bound into the yard crossing a flooded section of track. #gardenrailroad #trainsarecool #bagrs #ngrc2016 #gardenrailway #gscale #modeltrains #supportyourlocalhobbyshop #flooded

Thanks to everyone who joined us for #Norfolk Southern night, as the Tides battled the Syracuse Chiefs. Special thanks to the Sells family for dropping by our booth to pick up their train tattoos. #trainsarecool (at Harbor Park Stadium)

Georgia Division train 175 passes the old Southern Railway Pegram Shop facility. This mixed-freight train leaves the Atlanta skyline behind as it rolls south toward Macon from Bellevue. Some of you who are anxiously awaiting next month’s season premiere of @TheWalkingDead might recognize this location as “Terminus.” Terminus was once Atlanta’s nickname, because it was the end of the Western and Atlantic Railroad. #dyk Norfolk Southern operates a safe, reliable, and efficient transportation network. No matter the commodity, NS has the people, equipment, and infrastructure to get your shipment to its destination.

This month in #history - 1915: the Southern Railway began using an #advertising slogan that it would use for decades. The company’s vice-president and general counsel, L. E. Jeffries, designed the logo. He drew a circle, tracing around a half dollar. Inside it he drew a second circle, using a quarter. Inside the smaller circle, he placed a simple “SR,” and in the space between the circles, he wrote, “The Southern Serves the South.” Soon the design was appearing on menus, advertisements, timetables, and Christmas cards. The Southern News Bulletin reported that the station in Rome, Georgia, even trimmed its hedges in the shape of the new design. #DYK #safety #SouthernServestheSouth #norfolksouthern #trainsarecool
