TY-6 starts the inbound moves with an impressive five unit consist with a notable "Red P" GP30 blowing exhaust in the lead! I wonder if Big Mike and Wet Willie might order cheese steak sandwiches with those beers and maybe get some Mallo Cups for dessert? The B&O provided another nice surprise with colorful Chessie System switcher #9552 running the Pier 16 transfer! I like the Marathon "CAT" tankers at the Ford plant and the pre-merger NYC/ PRR locomotive combo on the BP-12/ BP-41! Great ways to kick off the "Inbounds"!
