| Description: |
Alexander Railroad EMD SW1500 No. 11 leads the shortline’s daily local from Taylorsville to Statesville, NC through the community of Hiddenite, NC. I was unfamiliar of “hiddenite” as a gemstone and had to do a little research to find out what it is. Apparently it is a “is a pale-to-emerald green variety of spodumene that is sometimes used as a gemstone.” |

Alexander Railroad EMD SW1500 No. 11 leads the shortline’s daily local from Taylorsville to Statesville, NC past what Apple Maps says is Dixie Seating Company in Statesville. However, if you zoom in and get a closer look at the truck in the building, it really looks like a Freightliner fire apparatus. Unsure of what the deal is here. |
