1-21-15 More Housekeeping at Engine House?

Unread postby Larry Gibson » Wed Jan 21, 2015 1:27 pm

Checked the camera about 1:20 local time and observed the flatcar with the equipment was back outside. A pick-up was parked with men moving in and out of the open stall.

About twenty minutes later the pick-up repositioned to infront of the flatcar. Then the fork lift came up and they rolled off two heavy objects from the bed of the truck. Looked almost like wheels and axles from this resolution but difficult to really be sure. Fork lift took them inside the middle section of the two buildings.

FYI The flat car is usually used for temporary storage of components from the engine being serviced in the engine house. Though I can't see enough detail in the cam view I suspect that is what you'd find on it now. Again guessing, it's dark and cramped in the RH stall so it seems it's just more efficient to bring it out during the work day.

Interesting to see some life moving about in the yard during winter. Just happened to look in today.

The objects rolled off onto the forklift like wheels would but not enough magnification to be sure.

Thought I'd post the pictures for the archive. Larry
