Album Info:Southern Railway's Spartanburg, SC - Asheville, NC mainline bordered our property where I was raised. My dad, who passed away last year, collected old cars and loved to watch the trains pass behind the house with me. So here is a tribute to my dad and the Southern Railway in Sigsbee, SC.
