Amtrak’s home in Greensboro is the recently reopened Galyon Depot, the historic Southern Railway Station. Located at the junction of the North Carolina Railroad and the Southern mainline, the station sees 6 passenger trains daily. Pictured today is the northbound Carolinian Train 80, 30 minutes late to its scheduled 9:21 AM stop. P42DC number 161 led a standard Amfleet consist.

Just south of the town of Haw River (and east of the Haw River itself), there are some well-worn industrial buildings along the North Carolina Railroad. Old industry makes a nice contrast to a fast-moving modern train. Amtrak P42DC number 182 leds the slightly tardy Carolinian Train 80.
