Penn Central Car Movements #113 Part 5

 Greetings All,

 

Welcome back to Penn Central Car Movements #113

Our three layout virtual op continues today with more inbound trains  arriving in Terminal Yard and the dispatch of local trains to continue the interchange of freight traffic with Ralph's Kings Port Division and Sir Neal's Atlantic Pacific Railroad.

We begin our day with Train WSJ-1 (Water Street Job) preparing to depart Terminal Yard with an EBRR and two APRR Hi Cube boxcars loaded with appliances from the PC Richard regional distribution center in Rock Ridge, NJ heading to the PC Richard Empire City warehouse.

The WSJ-1 departs Terminal Yard.

The Hi Cubes have been delivered.

Train WSJ-2 heads back to Terminal Yard with non PCCM traffic from the PC Richard Empire City warehouse.

The WSJ NW-2 arrives in the engine terminal joining the ex NH power.

Next out is a combined BT-27 / CJ-1 that will deliver empty coal hoppers to Hudson Coal and then work the Bedford industries before heading back to Terminal Yard.

The BT-27 / CJ-1 departs Terminal Yard.

The work in Bedford starts at the Hostess/Wonder Bread Plant on the industrial track to switch the Bedford industries.

An empty non PCCM Trisco covered hopper makes its PCCM debut as it is shoved back to Berk Enterprises to couple onto empty PC boxcar 142770 awaiting its next PCCM load.

Non PCCM traffic gets pulled from University Millwork and Ralph's Grocery Warehouse.

With the long siding now clear the BT-27 crew begins to deliver the PCCM traffic. APRR RBLs 60382 and 60394 loaded with paper products from Marcal in Rock Ridge, NJ are shoved to the Ralph's Grocery Warehouse siding.

EL 57' reefer 5034 loaded with frozen baked goods from Freihofer in Rock Ridge, NJ follows the APRR RBLs to the Ralph's Grocery Warehouse siding.

TPFX boxcar 5510 has traveled a long way loaded with lumber products from Triangle Pacific in North Vancouver BC for University Millwork.

Empty PC boxcar 142770 is placed back at Berk Enterprises along with LV/NIRX 41000 loaded adhesive paper rolls from International Paper in Binghamton, NY.

EBRR covered hoppers 827941 and 827946 loaded with flour from the large Cargill Facility in Rock Ridge NJ are spotted at Hostess. The three empty APRR boxcars are replaced for their continued PCCM loading. 

With the switch work done the BT-27 GP7s hold on the secondary track to await clearance onto the main for their runaround move.

Looks like the GP7s will be holding for a bit!!! PC Train TE-16 is barreling down the mainline and passing Bedford Tower.

Train TE-16 from Selkirk heads to Terminal Yard with PCCM freight traffic from the APRR and KPD.

Train TE-16 arrives in Terminal Yard.

With the TE-16 now in the yard the GP7s have made their runaround move and are coupled onto their train that will head back to Terminal Yard as Train BT-28.

Train BT-28 heads to Terminal Yard.

The BT-28 rolls into Terminal Yard.

The BT-28 power joins a full field in the engine terminal.

Back in Terminal Yard Big Mike and Kar Knocker get to work on the TE-16 and BT-28 freight consists.

Big Mike pulls a cut of PCCM cars that were held in the yard at the end of the outbound portion for their next PCCM moves. The empty PTTX bulkhead is heading to Gervais Pipe for its next PCCM load.

We'll cut it here for today with empty P&E, PC and NH boxcars cut into the TE-16 freight consist for movement to Empire City in Train EC-1.

We'll pick it up tomorrow with the dispatch of PC train EC-1 that will deliver a long train of PCCM traffic to North Side Yard.

This closes out Part 5 on the NYCTL. Be sure to catch all the PCCM action on PC Ralph's Kings Port Division and Sir Neal's Atlantic Pacific Railroad.

Thanks for reading and watching!!!

See you tomorrow!!
