The next train out will be the freight for the NYCTL with a final destination of Terminal Yard. A pair of Penn Central GP40 engines will make the trip up to Selkirk. A power swap and crew change will take this train to Terminal Yard...
The engines and caboose await their train as the yard crew is building their outbound train. NYCTL President Sir John has asked the APRR management to block the cars in a certain sequence to make breakdown at Terminal Yard more efficient so they can turn the freight out to their consignees...
Here's the first cut of cars to be added to the train...
Next, the second cut of cars...
...And the last cut of cars. A total of 26 cars to the NYCTL!!

Acknowledge AP Train RW-14 departing Rock Ridge Yard for Weehawken with PCCM freight traffic for the KPD.
Acknowledge PC Train Extra 3182 departing Rock Ridge Yard for Selkirk via Weehawken with PCCM freight traffic for Terminal Yard.
Terminal Yard out...
Two very nice trains to move the PCCM tonnage!!! I liked the back to back GP40s on Extra 3182. The 26 PCCM freight cars made for a long and impressive train. Terminal Yard is standing by to receive the PCCM freight traffic!!!!
