Gus, he is 5, just started school. He is into trains big time, just too little to understand yet.
The load you are referring to is left over from a project on the upper track to the lumber yard (the buildings are sitting on the track). The siding was a 1.5% grade and needed to be leveled. The brakemen have been complaining about having to set a brake and finding chalks to put under the wheels as well, and it was only a matter of time before the lumber yard let one get loose....
besides, the buildings should be level too.
