    Great work all around with the TOFC/COFC traffic in the new op between Terminal Yard and Rock Ridge Yard while also managing the extensive steel traffic from KP Steel. The LIRR connection has really increased the number of deliveries from the mill in Kings Port! Shout outs for the F7A quartet on the mixed manifest train and the debut of AMTRAK SDP40F # 5603!
