Helpers often cut off at the top of the grade on the other side of the tunnel, which is below me. 4315 is the unit facing the camera & is currently the highest #ed ACe unit on MRL. |

MRL ML w/Six Motors |
Description: |
They got here somewhere around 1300hrs & it is now 1800hrs....they are STILL not ready to go, but need headroom out of the yard to perform another switching move. The straight set out/pick up that normally takes 30 minutes or less was not to be had today. BNSF evidently left them more work than they could have ever hoped for in the yard, I am pretty sure they moved each & every car around a dozen times. |
