Norfolk Southern's CNO&TP in Tennessee (Part 1)
On various dates ranging from December 2020 to January 2023, I would find myself at various spots along the now-NS-owned former Cincinnati, New Orleans, & Texas Pacific mainline. While not as busy as it was pre-PSR, the line still boasts a healthy variety of traffic that traverses some of the most rugged and scenic territory in the United States, making for some incredible mountain railroading. While this isn't even half of the territory I'll be covering in this series, it's an ok start for what I was able to gather. Please note that the footage from December 2020 to January 2022 was recorded with a Panasonic HC-V770 camcorder. Sadly, it did not offer the quality and control over manual settings that I have with my current Sony FDR-AX53 camcorder. Footage from my Sony can be seen from the September footage and onwards. All-in-all, I hope y'all enjoy this start to a new video series! 0:00 12/07/2020 Rockwood: NS ???
