1/16/26 Back-to-Back Trains in Cordele! NS154 12 Min after M802 SD70ACe 1207 + 8176 (Smoky Night)

01/16/26 — Cordele, GA (Night) — This was my second catch right after arriving in Cordele — and it came only about 12 minutes after my first train, CSX M802. Next up was Norfolk Southern NS154 with a pair of SD70ACe’s: NS 1207 leading and NS 8176 trailing. And wow… that horn was incredible — one of those tones you feel in your chest before the power even gets into view. ⚠️ Conditions were rough: There was a fire in the area for miles, and the smoke was really bad (hard to breathe). Even so, catching two trains back-to-back like this made the stop totally worth it. 📸 Safety / camera note: I was not on the tracks. I filmed from a safe location using a 50mm f/1.8 on a crop-sensor camera (which gives a tighter, “zoomed” field of view). 💬 Question for you: What’s your fastest “back-to-back” catch — and what were the symbols/locos? 📚 Factoid – Why Back-to-Back Catches Feel So Good When you land somewhere new and immediately score one train, then another right behind it, it’s usually a mix of good timing + busy traffic windows. That’s the kind of luck every railfan hopes for on the road. 🔖 Tags #railfanning #railways #USA #americanrail #locomotive #railway #4k #NorfolkSouthern #NS #NS154 #SD70ACe #NS1207 #NS8176 #Cordele #CordeleGA #GeorgiaRailfanning #NightRailfanning #TrainHorn #LoudHorn #SmokyNight #WildfireSmoke #FreightTrain #TrainSpotting #Railfan #BackToBackTrains #AfterCSXM802
