Title:  Rolling through Fall...
Description:  NS Local P95 rolling up the South Newton Lead through the SENG&SM Campus on the former Carolina & North-Western (Milepost HG-80) heading back towards the interchange with the NS S-Line. High hoods like #5118 are no longer used here, the tree is gone, and N&W covered hoppers are harder and harder to find.

Description:  NS Local P95 rolling up the South Newton Lead on the former Carolina & North-Western (Milepost HG-79.2) heading back towards the interchange with the NS S-Line. This was one of the last runs (if not THE last run) of a High-Hood on this line. As it happens, the trackage was in such bad shape that one of the rails nearly caused a derailment on the trip down!

Description:  NS Local P95 rolling up the South Newton Lead past Newton Depot, part of the SENG&SM Campus on the former Carolina & North-Western (Milepost HG 79.9) heading back towards the interchange with the NS S-Line. This was one of the last times (if not the VERY last) that a High Hood would run down this section of line. The #NewtonDepot certainly saw almost all of these over the years.

Title:  A lost view...
Description:  NS Local P95 rolling up the South Newton Lead through the SENG&SM Campus on the former Carolina & North-Western (Milepost HG 79.9) heading back towards the interchange with the NS S-Line. This was one of the last (if not the VERY last) train to roll on these tracks with a High Hood, and this view also doesnt exist due to the fact that Norfolk Southern (shortline) caboose #376 has been placed just past the parking lot below the railroad where a Plaza/Stage will be.

Title:  Faces turning away...
Description:  NS Local P95 rolling down the South Newton Lead through the SENG&SM Campus on the former Carolina & North-Western (Milepost HG-79.9) heading back to Renwood Mills near downtown Newton.

The Museum is building a plaza just below the railroad past the parking lot, complete with a caboose.
