The motive power moves on. Why are engines from a Gulf Coast railroad in Hillsdale? Because the KCS and the AP&W now have a joint New York City to Kansas City intermodal train, the Cherokee Gateway. Normally, this train will have a mix of power between the two, but this train is all KCS. (Any excuse to have sound-equipped locomotives untill I get mine painted-up this summer!)
The train passes through town. As usual, there are alot of Schneider National trailers; in fact, this train is loaded primarily with Schneider equipment.
A JB Hunt 53' container on chassis is loaded on the last car.
After last month's derailment, the local MOW outfit decided they needed a repair rig to help speed up response and repair/replacement times. This used rescue truck was purchased and is currently being converted for their use. All those equipment boxes and roof-top a/c units will come in handy!
With winter weather on the way, a snowplow receives some attention at Tony's. Yes, they even do occasional work on large trucks!
