Charleston Sub Action         
Believe this to be an old GP-7 doing some switching at Yemassee, SC. Boy have things changed here!!!! CSX now has a Building across the Tracks. The Yard Tracks in the background are long gone. The line to Port Royal was recently torn up, and the Amtrak Station is now closed, but the Train still stops. The Track the Loco is on was pulled up in the late 1980s.
