P.C.C.M. #81 Part 6 - The Last Of The Inbound Freight Gets Delivered!

Welcome back to Penn Central Car Movement #81 of this three layout movement featuring freight from Sir John's New York Central Train Layout and PC Ralph's Kings Port Division HO Model Railroad.

Today we're going to get those 3 PC cars from Bruce Electric to Ideal, 4 cars to ShopRite, some coal for R.M.O. Electric, Three Amigos Warehouse and Shapeless Steel.

AP MP15 #105 with 1:87 scale engineer Mark at the throttle will run the 6 coal cars over to R.M.O. Electric. The train came into Rock Ridge yard as a "Hot" train, but the crew at the power plant was working on some last minute maintenance for coal track 1 that needed to be completed. So much for a "Hot" load....

Let's watch as AP train RR-1  brings the coal loads over the 6 coal loads from Hudson Coal to R.M.O. Electric..


AP train RR-1 drops the coal cars on the Rock Ridge Secondary. AP GE 44 Tonner #900 will spot the cars in the power plant.

AP GE 44 Tonner #900 with 1:87 scale engineer JP is ready for action!





Let's watch A{ #900 with 1:87 scale engineer JP spotting the coal hoppers in the power plant...

The work at R.M.O. Electric is finished and back at full capacity..

Back in the yard, AP 105 makes some moves in order to get some cars over to ShopRite...



Let's watch the move over at ShopRite...


Let's watch the move out of Rock Ridge Yard...

A quick stop at West Harold Interlocking....

A runaround to shove the NYC Hi-Cube box car to Three Amigos is the first move of this turn...



The crew did drop the empty gondola cars over at Shapeless Steel. However, due to some proprietary work going on nearby, photographs were prohibited...

AP RS-1 heads back to Rock Ridge Yard....

The crew is back in the yard, their work is done...

Over at Rock Ridge East Yard, AP train RI-4 with RS-1 #200 'Spirit Of Jay' is ready to head out with 1:87 scale engineer Bob and his trusty sidekick conductor Stuart. Stuart is still under double secret probation. No one knows when that will expire....



Let's watch how a veteran engineer spots these cars at Ideal Auto Parts...

The move is finished at Ideal and AP #200 heads into Rock Ridge Yard....



The inbound portion of Penn Central Car Movement #81 is completed and it's a wrap!

    APRR #900 is the Engine of the Day with its black safety stripes. That is a fine looking locomotive!. The drop off on the fly at IDEAL was cool!
