Everett Sub Action |
| Description: |
The Riceboro Turn is heading south on the Everett Sub at Richmond Hill, Georgia. It is the Summer of 1985. Unknown to me at this time was the decision to close the "S" Line south of Riceboro. The route is still open at this time, but not for very long. We had just missed a "Pig" Train heading south Here when we went for Burgers. (We had no Scanner at this time) Had I known about the coming abandonment of this route, I sure would have caught that Intermodal Train instead of going for Burgers!!! You wouldnt have thought this line was up for abandonment as work was going on right here. (Tie renewal) Today, the route still extends to Riceboro and is operated by a Shortline Company. The route is gone from Riceboro to just north of Kingsland, at Seals, Georgia. This was once the Racetrack of the Seaboard Air Line, but was quickly deemed surplus trackage after the SCL Merger. Amtrak ran here until late in 1979. The end was announced in 1983, as the "New" Seaboard System began a program to get rid of excess trackage. This route was one of the first to get the Ax. Not very long after this, the "S" line north of Raliegh, NC suffered the same fate. |

Everett Sub Action |
| Description: |
The Riceboro Turn is heading south on the Everett Sub at Richmond Hill, Georgia. This view looks to the south showing the recently renewed Trackwork. The CTC Signal in the distance gives a "High Green" to the south. But it would not be for much longer. The end was near for this route south of Riceboro. I had no clue either. This was the SAL's "Racetrack' to Florida!!!! The CTC remained in service for a short time after the abandonment, but was deactivated in the Summer of 1986. Signal equipment was removed in 1991. Today, the route is operated by a shortline and the track here is much deteriorated over the years since it was downgraded. |

SBD U36B 5785 |
| Description: |
SBD U36B 5785 at Corbin, Kentucky on April 4, 1985, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Built as Seaboard Coasy Line (SCL) 1835 January 1972 (c/n 38278), it was modified during construction to operate with MATE (Motors for Added Tractive Effort) slugs. When this locomotive was buiht, 900 horsepower per axle was a lot, and wheel slip technology had not yet caught up with that kind of power. These tended to be slippery locomotives, especially when mu'ed /with EMD products. The SCL was in need of replacement power for its Bone Valley (near Tampa, Florida) phosphate lines, and GE suggested road slugs for this operation. A MATE differs from ordinary slugs in three ways: their 65,413 to 67,588 pounds of added tractive effort surpasses that of most slugs, they are designe to operate at road speeds (they are equipped with Blomberg trucks with GE 752 traction motors), and they also serve as fuel tenders. Each MATE carries 3250 gallons of fuel+that the modified U36B can draw on while under way. These remain the only road slugs constructed by a major builder, but that could change. The first 10 MATE's (originally SCL #3200-3209, later SBD #5200-5209) were single ended, and could onl take power from the mother at one end. The second batch (SCL #3210-3224, SBD #5210-5224) are double ended, and can take power from either end, or in a third mode of operation, can be placed between two mothers and draw power from both. The double-ended MATE's have headlights and numberboards at both ends, the single-ended MATE's have a headlimht and numberboards at one end only. |
