Welcome to Penn Central Car Movements #102!!!
PCCM 102 is another three layout virtual op with my NYCTL interchanging freight traffic with Sir Neal's Atlantic Pacific RR and PC Ralph's Kings Port Division and continues today with the dispatch of our outbound trains.
The action starts with Big Mike having the yard in order and knocking off for the day.
At this time the Yard "A" crew is now on duty and the 16A gets ready to begin its work.The 16A makes its moves.
The 16A returns to Yard "A".Train CJ-1 is next out of Terminal Yard with the usual three ex NYC GP7s for power.The Coal Job departs Terminal Yard.
The CJ-1 hold at EB tower for the rear brakeman to open the switch to Hudson Coal.Loaded hoppers get pulled from Hudson Coal.The Coal Job pulls the loads and shoves back the empties.
The empties are spotted. The PRR and NYC hoppers will be receiving their next PCCM coal loads.The Coal Job is back together and prepares to head back to Terminal Yard as Train CJ-2.Train CJ-2 heads back to Terminal Yard.
The CJ-2 arrives back in Terminal Yard.Kar Knocker and Big Mike take a minute to check out KP&W hopper 202 making its PCCM debut before the caboose gets pulled and the train gets inspected. The coal train is cleared for movement and Big Mike starts making up an outbound coal extra that will be heading to the Bow, NH power plant.GP38 #7675 and FP7 #4369 couple up to the coal extra.Extra 7675 departs Terminal Yard.

Cars are winding their ways to the APRR and the KPD! I never tire of watching those NYC FA units on the 16A! Speaking of power the three GP7s on the Coal Job handle this heavy work very smoothly. The loads out/empties in move at Hudson Coal is one of the best on the N.Y.C.T.L.! I always appreciate the detail scenes such as the inspection by Kar Knocker and Big Mike that add realism to the ops. Three sizeable trains dispatched from Terminal Yard! Look for Extra 7675 and SK-5 to make their appearances on the KPD next week! Nicely done all around!
