I hope this helps. In the next pic the caboose and tank car is left on track A and the locomotive is on track B bringing back the coal car.

Now every thing is on track A

Now we see the two cars are moved over to track B and the caboose is left on A.

now with the two cars on B we go back and get the caboose.

Oh man now I am confused. Anyway somehow I get the locomotive and caboose on the other end of the train. Now to go over head and start down hill.

It will drop about four feet in about eight feet of grade. There is a large amount of level track in the middle of the down hill trip. Here we see the train coming down approaching the level area where the yard is.

After passing the yard it crosses a rather long bridge that is kind of strange because it is a train and highway bridge combined. If you look closely you will see a truck on the other side of the bridge.

Now we will just follow it along for a while. In a little bit it will start going down hill again.

Here it has started going down hill again.

Now we can see how hairy this gets in some places as it comes out of the tunnel.

Getting close to the bottom now.

You can see it is approaching the C&O main now.

The two cars are left for the next C&O local.
