IT'S TEAM TRACK TUESDAY!!!  Team tracks are a vital part of day to day railroad operations.  Practically all kinds of freight cars are off loaded and on loaded on team tracks ... some passenger head end cars too.   Team can be found in large cities, small towns and in rural areas.  

Lets see what is being loaded/unloaded on your railroad's team track (s)!

Today on the Free State Junction Railway holiday cheer in the way of Budweiser has arrived on the Patsburg team tracks.  The SW 9 switcher  has spotted two billboard reffers.  As the unloading crews are wrapping things up, the local Bud distributor's trucks are getting ready to pull away with the last loads, leaving the cars empty and ready to be pulled from the team tracks.  Click on photos at bottom to view captions. Have a great week everyone!!!

Sales of Christmas Trees are as brisk as the morning air as 2 gons of trees are being loaded with Flemings Christmas Trees. Soon these trees will be sold all over western Pa.

Mark - I can smell the pine from here!! LOL!!  Great creative scenes!!

I love the 59 Chevy Bel Air, those fins are an icon of the 1950's for sure!  

You gotta love the fins! 

Seems like someone is going to have a great time in your scene Patrick. I'm sure some of that beer fell off of the truck, if you know what I mean.

SIRT - wonderful looking drop end gons!!!!  I love the graffiti too!!  Great scene with the sand service gondola, front end loader, and worker inside car giving hand signals to the loader operator!!  The debris in the bottom of the one gondola is great too.  Great 3rd rail as well!!  Definitely real!!!
