Hey guys!

I am new to trainhopping and am currently curious about the route from Lynchburg, VA to Atlanta through Greensboro on NS 13R and 25A. Has anyone been on that specific route? Security seems low in VA and NC but a bit higher in Atlanta. What time of day do they show up in your experience? I appreciate any information or tips. :)

Haven't taken that specific route but I have ridden into and out of Atlanta on NS. Inman Yard is NW of town, pretty out of the way. Had no trouble with security getting in and out. No fence at the hop spot and no bull on shift when I was there. I bailed off the IM I was on before it entered the main yard area because it was terminating there. I found catching an originating IM out of there to be somewhat confusing however because there were a ton of strings waiting for departure all in close proximity so make sure you have your ID down. Thru trains CC right by the hop spot so those are easy. Bus system in Atlanta sucks ass. Slow and expensive.
