William H. Davis Jr. General Thanks Larry, this is a reroute, these trains usually run through Atlanta & Chattanooga & over to Memphis that way, but sometimes when there's heavy traffic between Chattanooga & Atlanta, track work, or crew shortages they'll reroute these empty trains through Birmingham, but they never reroute the loads through Birmingham due to the grades on the NA District 8/2/2012 12:09:23 PM
