P.C.C.M. 78 Grain Op 2!

 Hey everyone!

We're running a grain train as our 78th Penn Central Car Movement series, that we refer to as  our "virtual ops" between John's New York Central Train Layout , Neal's Atlantic Pacific RR , and my own Kings Port Division.   

Actually I'm very late to the party because of an internet outage that eventually led me to change our provider.  I'm back online today and want to send out my parts of the grain ops. 
 

So...back to the post as originally written along time ago!

Yesterday several loaded grain cars were brought into West Mill Yard to be assembled into a unit grain train for Selkirk and eventually Terminal Yard on the N.Y.C.T.L.

The yard's SW9 gets to work putting the train together.

 Power for this train will be handled by a trio of GP38-2s which couple up to the first cut and pull it forward to grab the second half of the train.

 The trio of Geeps pulls the first string and then backs it into the next track to pick up the rest of the cars.

 The covered hoppers heading to Selkirk are all coupled together. SW9 #8951 tacks on a caboose to make this an official train.

Watch the unit grain train leave West Mill for Selkirk in the video below:

Watch what happens next on John's New York Central Train layout!

Keep an eye on the Kings Port Division and the A.P.R.R. as those grain cars will be quickly returned as empties!
