We pick up the action just outside of the terminal. Train Q160 has been dropped off on the West Harold Secondary Track. The set of MP15 switchers are at the ready.
First move is to pick up the caboose off the end of the train.
The crew based out of the area checks in with the engineer to make sure we're all on schedule.
Meanwhile, the engineer of and conductor of Q160 cut away from the train and head over to an open track on the east end of the secondary track.
The MP15 switchers head out to start the local move. The tower operator designates the move a s Y160 into Reynolds Intermodal Terminal.
And now we begin to shove and cut the cars on tracks two, three and four...
The moves are finished and the yard job is over.
A quick stop at the yard office and they'll end this trip by parking the cars on the Warehouse lead adjacent to the Intermodal Terminal
The job is finished, the crew heads over to Meet At Ralph's as the special today is Lasagna with a Caesar Salad and followed by some Coconut Custard Pie!
It's a wrap for Intermodal Ops 1C!
Make sure you check the finale over at John's N.Y.C.T.L. Intermodal Op Movement

Excellent work Sir Neal!! Those MP15s are sweet! Nice showcase of your intermodal rolling stock. It was nice to see the T.O.F.C. cars being shoved so smoothly into the yard. I did a double take for the CSL Intermodal containers. Very impressive!
