8/19/18 Sunday
Posted: Sun Aug 19, 2018 5:02 amMorning preparations:
487 has moved into south yard so maybe an extra coach. So they grabbed the caboose of the student freight and gone further into south yard with it. End result, they grabbed that box car which 487 had pulled from the house yesterday and attached it to the freight consist, so no extra cars today.
