As close to a roster shot as I could get of NS 8101, the Central of Georgia Heritage unit. This is the 2nd of Norfolk Southern's 20 heritage units that I have been lucky enough to shoot in Denver. Central of Georgia started WAY back in 1833 (as the Central Rail Road and Canal Company). It acquired a lot of railroads in the 19th century and, in 1956, operated 2,646 miles of track. On June 17, 1963, the railroad became a subsidiary of Southern Railway which, of course, was one of the founding railroads of today's Norfolk Southern.
