Also:

Something else worth noting-
The area in northern Louisiana, along the ALM is having a boom since they found natural gas in the area. I saw them unloading 36 inch gas lines near Monroe from flat cars.

On the Chattahoochee (thank God for spell check) Industrial RR and on the Bay Line are two plants that manufacture this pipe. Coil steel cars in, and flat cars of pipe out. The plant on the CIRR is Republic Steel.

On the Columbus and Greenville at Columbus is the Severstall steel plant. Gondolas of scrap iron and steel in and coil cars of steel out.

On the Georgia Central at Macon is a large scrap mill. Gondolas of scrap iron and steel out.

It would be too much to hope that the scrtap at Macon would end up as the pipe being laid at Monroe, but we can hope.
