Paul. Thank you. 🤝

Yesterday's switching work left this freight consist waiting to make the run to Interchange:

This AM, the crew parked the Dinner Train for the day. Then they delivered the outgoing train to interchange. The Plywood Empire Route follows the old ICC rule that there cannot be a tank car as either the first car or the last car so before leaving town the crew drilled until the gray covered hopper (in foreground) was between the last [tank] car and the Crummy. Then they whistled off out of town.

Lee - that is a great looking ballast job!  Also a great looking tandem axle tractor!  What is the model and year of the tractor?

Oh! I think Lee has a Big Car right there. An Autocar, that is.

Ha! This snuck right past me, Lee . That looks an awful lot like a Big Car.
