Return of the Redbirds by Chris Dees

Earlier this year, Union City, TN native Brent Lee realized his dream of returning home to manage and operate Tennessee’s newest shortline railroad, the Union City Terminal. Operating on a small section of the former Gulf, Mobile & Ohio mainline between Union City and Rives, the UCT utilizes two HLCX GP38-2 locomotives in a paint scheme that is reminiscent of GM&O’s red-and-white paint scheme from the 1960s and 1970s.
