| Southern E8A 6901 had been the trailing unit on train No. 1 - the southbound SOUTHERN CRESCENT - from Washington to Atlanta, and here it was at the Atlanta station as the inbound power was being removed from the train so these could be replaced with freshly-serviced locomotives. The 6901 had been built in September 1951 as the 2924 and was renumbered in 1972. It was retired in 1979 and donated to the Atlanta Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society. |
