P.C.C.M. #75 Part 5 - Last Of The Deliveries On The APRR

Welcome back to the conclusion of Penn Central Car Movement #75 on the A.P.R.R.! 

Sir John and his N.Y.C.T.L. along with PC Ralph and his K. P. & W. railroads have inbound freight from the consignees that are serviced by the AP. Today, we have a couple of quick deliveries to make, so let's get started!!

AP RBL box car # 60416 was called into service at Weehawken to deliver the freight off of EB 360279, which was taken out of service due to a bad order on the car...



AP Train RM-1X and SW1000 #110 with 1/87th scale Dan at the throttle along with brakeman Jim makes the quick run out to drop the car at Marcal. 








The car is spotted and they're heading home...



They check in and call it a day!



Last night, an urgent call was made from Ideal Auto Parts to 1/87th scale Sir Neal asking for the remaining 2 auto parts cars to be delivered and to pick up the 3 86' auto parts cars and take over to the yard. The call is made and the moves begin! 1/87th Steve and brakeman Bob are called back into action!






  
The moves at Ideal are complete, so they head back to the yard with those fully loaded 86' auto parts cars. The Ford Plant in Empire City is going to love that quick turnaround!








A new day, and AP Train RT-5 finally gets going with a new crew since they had to lay over by West Harold. Engineer 1/87th scale Matt along with his brakeman Stuart wrap up this move...




All 5 cars are spotted by Three Amigos and they head home. A quick stop by CP West Harold and they depart for Rock Ridge...




That concludes my portion of P.C.C.M. #75 on the A.P.R.R.

Don't forget to check out the rest of the inbound moves on

Thanks for reading and hope you enjoyed #75!!

    Nice work dealing with the bad ordered EB 360279 and reloading the shipment into great looking APRR RBL #60416! Nice job conveying the quick turnarounds and rush orders required by the auto industry. APRR rolling stock always looks good in railfan photos!
