Scenario cards: a second try

I was messing around with the idea of just running a short local for a session and came up with the Float Yard Turn. The Float Yard in West Milll is close to Empire Grain, GERN, and Sal's Salvage. I drew a new, simplified card, from each of these three industry decks. Other cards in each deck ask for different numbers and types of cars to be picked up or set out (ex: "No work today" or "set out one tank car of lubricating oil for the car shredder at Sal's", etc).

In this draw I have to pick up a gon of scrap metal from Sal's, a couple of loaded boxcars from GERN, and exchange a pair of covered hoppers at Empire Grain.

Staging for this scenario involves placing the two boxcars at GERN,

..and the Float Yard (which I forgot to photograph in the yard as staged and ready). Wallbang
