YARD ACTION PT4

After returning from Uniontown with a short train of cars for local delivery, Sam, Bob, and engine 3163 get back to work...
3163 runs around its train after setting out the cut of cars bound for Wilson Steel. The newly installed cross-over switch on the west end of the yard now allows this maneuver.
Now coupled to the other end, the crew is ready to depart with the short train to service the customers in Hillsdale; the Hillsdale Ready Mix, Pete's Plastics, Hillsdale Public Works, and Smitty Lumber.
The cut of cars for Wilson Steel sit in the yard, awaiting forwarding to Dale City.
Dale Williams takes a break beside his utility vehicle, which now has a flashing light on the roof for visibility.
Pulling their usual assignment, CDB-47, the America units roll to a stop for a crew change.
