I spent three hours at the Folkston viewing platform the evening of March 10 and saw a dozen or so trains and another three hours the morning of March 11 with similar results. After dining at the Okefnokee Restaurant on Main Street near the Folkston viewing platform I can highly recommend it for dinner. Excellent food (get the buffet) at very reasonable prices which I enjoyed in the company of a fellow railfan from Chicago I met at the platform.
Stopped at Jessup for a short period of time with no trains. However a visit to the Jessup Chamber of Commerce building adjacent to the Jessup viewing platform yielded a wonderful, large map of Georgia railraod past and present. They had a good supply of the multi-color maps which are free for the asking.
