Terminal Yard out!!
The AP crews continue to shine!!!! Nice work moving the virtual ops tonnage and the non PCCM cars in and out of the busy and complex Rock Ridge Yard and the surrounding area. The refueling of AP100 was a nice move and I liked see AP caboose #79, a Patti O Paint Shop product, on the rear of RE-4. PC GP35 #2370 was perfect for the transfer run to Weehawken and beyond. Another fine installment Sir Neal!!!
