Jesup, Georgia - CSX Hot Spot

Jesup, 58 miles south of Savannah in southern Georgia, has long been an important junction on the predecessors of CSX.   The CSX line through Jesup is the former Atlantic Coast Line’s famed Richmond to Jacksonville speedway, which today is better known as the “A” Line. At Jesup the “A” line splits into two lines, one heading to CSX’s largest hump classification yard in the South at Waycross, and the other to Jacksonville. In addition to CSX’s long trains between the Northeast and Florida, all of Amtrak’s New York to Florida trains pass through Jesup. In 2003 a railfan platform was opened at Jesup. This program shows over 24 hours of action in and around Jesup in March of 2008. “Jesup, Georgia – CSX Hot Spot” is 74 minutes in length.  The DVD version of this program can be watched with or without narration.
