Mannheim Yard Job sets out a tank car of liquid caustic soda on the supply track at the Flying Fish Brewery. Then it makes a pick up of loaded insulated box
cars on the keg track.

The westbound Continental passenger train changes power and crews at Leetown.CNR U2G Northerns are the preferred power on all westbound trains as the consist always includes the addition of head end express reefers filled with fruit from the Niagara Peninsula and fish from Lake Erie.During the harvest season it's not unusual to see a couple of Northerns heading this train.

It's gotta be frustrating to get stuck at a crossing when you're not a railfan...




...but it's a feeling I've never experienced.

These motorists won't have to wait long as a passenger special speeds through the crossing at Indian Line

Working the storage track



ps. This Genesis FEC GP40-2 and another NS GP40-2 are in desperate need for new Trainman GPxx drives. Only problem is that the chassis must be milled down to a flat board to match the Genesis shell. A lot of noise and dirt..... but the brand new Atlas silver series GP38-2 chassis (the ones for the 21 pin decoders put aside so far) might be easier to mill down. I need to swap the Tsunami 1 with a Tsunami 2 decoder to get flashing ditch lights too.
