Great. At first I thought the logo was GM&O. What does the sign at right mean?

Great photo. Note the mainline in the foreground is ribbon rail.

The low nose third unit looks almost out of place with the other three more powerful units. It seems to be greatly overpowered.

I love reading the comments. You guys know so much more about these things. You know what I thought when I saw this? Alan Jackson's song "Chattahoochee".

That is a "Whistle Post" sign for a grade crossing. Most Railroads simply use a small sign with a "W" on it, but some Railroads used this design. I found such a sign along the abandoned G&F in south Georgia and made it into a street address sign. It looks like a mile marker now...LOL. It amazes me how much older power still exists out there. Bernie, you are a magnet for this stuff. Thanks for sharing!!!
