Penn Central Car Movements #86 / NYCTL Part 5 / Final Interchanges

 Greeting All,

Welcome back to Penn Central Car Movements #86!!!

Our two layout virtual op with my NYCTL interchanging freight cars with Ralph's Kings Port Division concludes today on the NYCTL with our final interchanges.

We open with a pair of NYC U Boats pulling Train EC-1, a daily transfer run to Empire City, out of Terminal Yard.

The EC-1 heads thru Bedford NY
 

EC-1 arrives in North Side Yard.

The U Boats reclaim their caboose and depart for Terminal Yard.

The Empire Belt gets to work on the EC-1 freight cars.

The Empire Belt Afternoon Industrial Job is now on the secondary track to work the Empire City industries.

The AIJ shoves into the midtown siding.

EL reefer #5034 loaded with fresh produce for C&P Restaurant Supply gets pulled from Empire Produce.

Being shoved back to Empire Produce are an HRC RBL for continued PCCM loading, EL reefer 50xx for its next PCCM load and BAR boxcar #5226 loaded with blue berries from Maine.

The AIJ is back together and shoves east.

Now working the east side industries the AIJ couples up to an empty PC gondola awaiting its PCCM load and three APRR gondolas with their PCCM loads of pipe for Tropicana in Rock Ridge NJ.

Being pulled from Ralph's Grocery Warehouse are AP RBLs #60394 and #60382 loaded with packaged meals for C&P Restaurant Supply and empty IC boxcar #30130 gets pulled for its next PCCM load. 

B&M RBLs #105, #109 and #110 loaded with soup from Habitant Soup in New Hampshire get spotted at Ralph's Grocery Warehouse.
 
Two loaded steel coil coaches from Kings Port Steel are spotted at Gervais Pipe & Fitting along with empty PC gondola #288673 for its PCCM load.

The AIJ returns to North Side Yard.  
Meanwhile over in Bedford NY the daily LIRR Transfer from Fresh Pond Yard to North Side Yard comes thru Bedford NY.

 
The LIRR transfer rolls thru Bedford
 
 
The LIRR Transfer arrives at Terminal Yard.

The LIRR engines couple up to NYC covered hopper #892010 loaded with grain from Empire Grain going to Ronzoni in Long Island City.

The LIRR crew reclaims their caboose.

The LIRR heads out of Empire City.

Put it in the books!!! The LIRR train rolls back to Fresh Pond Yard.

This wraps up the NYCTL Inbound portion of PCCM #86.

Be sure to catch the action on Ralph's Kings Port Division!!!!
 
Thanks for reading and watching!!!

    Nice wrap up of the series forwarding the few cars that the KPD sent along this time! The caprice of the Rail Traffic Management Form shows in the one car move for the LIRR but the car must be forwarded to its consignee! I like the photo location with the EBRR units running under the bridge in photos 5. Its a vantage point I don't think I've seen before or at least not very often. Great looking scrap train the LIRR brought in! It was great to see the former NH consist on another train!

    The Ex NH Alco train was a nice surprise and I thought I saw some classic early 40’ box cars in the mix. Local deliveries and preparation for future PCCM moves to the APRR in place. Another great cameo by the RDC car. Great series!
