Do a search on the MR index site for an article called "Shift Time" by R Thomas Cole, and get hold of a copy - MR April 1983 page 88 - you work a shift, and then go home - things happen when you aren't there, and when you come back on your next shift a new set of cars await you to be delivered - they are, of course, the ones you left to be picked up by the overnight train - interesting concept!
