Hello Virtual Ops fans!

Meanwhile, on the Kings Port Division cars are being picked up for eventual forwarding to both John R.'s New York Central Train Layout and Neal's Atlantic Pacific R.R.

Two empty cars are pulled from Amalgamated Container to be sent to American Hardware on Neal's layout for loads of rivets and other hardware for large tank manufacturing.


A Penn Central way freight picks up A.P.R.R. hopper #9416 loaded with aggregate for the New York State DOT #10 region for highway construction.  The car will head to John R.'s Terminal Yard and be forwarded to the LIRR for final delivery.


Two Evans Bread Box Trough cars loaded with steel coils are pulled from KP Steel for Gervais Pipe and fittings on the N.Y.C.T.L.

Empire Belt gondola # 509823 sent to Sal's Salvage with a load of rough scrap ...

...has now been unloaded and is to be moved to Amalgamated Container where it will be loaded with a storage tank for Crown Oil & Chemical L.I.C. NY.



Gulf, Mobile & Ohio boxcar 21129 is pulled from the Gulf facility loaded with barrels of cutting oil for Walsh Steel Wool on the N.Y.C.T.L.

Meanwhile over at Woodstock Hills Natural Soda in Bloomberg a pair of cars, PC 77047 and IC 30130, both loaded with pallets of soda. head out to Ralph's Grocery Warehouse on the N.Y.C.T.L.



On the other side of Bloomberg, PC 350158 is pulled from Zenith Television loaded with TVs that will be going to Superior Furniture on the N.Y.C.T.L



A Kings Port & Western Transfer run brings the Bloomberg cars to West Mill. 

A new car in the virtual ops mix, PS-2 covered hopper #445052, has been sent over by Williams Yard to be included on a train to Terminal Yard so it can be forwarded to T&R Gravel for locomotive sand. 

Check back tomorrow as these cars will be sorted into a train to be dispatched toward Terminal Yard via Selkirk.  The two KP&W boxcars for the A.P.R.R. will be tacked onto a train dispatched from Terminal Yard for Neal's Rock Ridge Yard as it passes through West Mill.
