A pair of westbound GPs blast through Sylva at 10 mph while my wife Jann watches. They are just a few hundred feet from the Southern Concrete Products plant where they will couple to empty sand hoppers and return to Canton, NC. Just beyond the SCM plant is the interchange for the Great Smokey Mountain Railroad. |
