P.C.C.M. #83 Part 2 On The A.P.R.R. - Outbound Build And Departures

Welcome back to the continuation of Penn Central Car Movement #83 on the A.P.R.R.! 

We'll jump right in as the crews are ready to send out two trains - one for the N.Y.C.T.L. and one for the K.P.D. 

AP #105 with 1:87 Scale Mark and conductor Jim will pull the outbound freight cars destined for the K.P.D...




Here's the build for the freight going to the K.P.D.



PC SD35 #6014 will take the outbound train from the AP crew at the yard limits for the trip up north. They will hold as there's inbound traffic in front of them. Since they're still on AP track, they will need to wait for permission to proceed....



The PC caboose is added to the train. The crew will hold on Rock Ridge departure track #2...


The AP crew is back at CP South Tower checking in...


Meanwhile, over at Rock Ridge East Yard, 1:87 scale Engineer NJ John will build the outbound train for the N.Y.C.T.L...


PC SD35 #6031 with the Red "P" awaits the outbound cars for the N.Y.C.T.L. These cars will be taken to Terminal Yard, classified then delivered to the consignees they serve...





Some last minute moves are made..


The PC crew checks in at West Harold Tower and gets the orders for their departure from Rock Ridge. Once their train is ready, they'll back up and pick up the outbound on Rock Ridge departure track #1...


Here's a little clip of the moves for the train destined for the N.Y.C.T.L....


A few more cars are added to the train...



The caboose is put in position...


The outbound trains are ready to depart. There's some inbound traffic coming to Rock Ridge, so they'll fleet the outbound trains one at a time as the inbound approaches from the east...


The outbound departures begin! Let's take a look at the action track side by Little Jamaica Interlocking.
First train out will be PC #6031 for Terminal Yard on the N.Y.C.T.L. followed by PC #6014 for West Mill on the K.P.D. Also, watch for AP #106 making his moves.....

DISCLAIMER: THE ENGINES IN THE VIDEO ARE NOT GP38-2 ENGINES. THEY ARE SD35 ENGINES. SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION. TYPING LATE AT NIGHT CAUSES ERRORS BEYOND MY CONTROL! UGH!!! 


That's the outbound portion of Penn Central Car Movement #83 on the A.P.R.R. Follow the rest of the action on Sir John's N.Y.C.T.L. and PC Ralph's Kings Port Division 

Thanks for reading!

    To: Rock Ridge, Terminal Yard
    From: West Mill

    Acknowledge work of AP 105, the dispatch of PC Train RW-1 and PC Train RW-3.

    West Mill out.

    The important interchange between the APRR and the Penn Central is clearly demonstrated as trains for West Mill and Terminal Yard are assembled by the APRR and handed over to the PC. I enjoyed the video and photos of the yard work and the video roll-bys of both trains. West Mill is prepared to receive the cars heading its way!
