Happy SWSat to all.
icing reefers is a tedious process in Farmingdale. There is only room for two cars on the ice station siding; and with that only one car can be iced at a time. The crew of the NY - St Louis express was ordered to pickup two reefers left behind by an earlier train. They dropped the train just outside the station and pulled ahead to give the switcher room. The crew of Erie #56 was assigned to the dock this morning. Getting the green to go out on the main, they moved in and proceeded to pull the two reefers off the dock track onto the main. Once clear of the switch they spotted the reefers at the head of the passenger train and cleared the main.
