IN THE YARDS PT11

A recently delivered string of Herzog gons sits in the yard, awaiting delivery to a local quarry for loading with boulders. The boulders will then be delivered to a rock crusher for conversion into gravel.
The last cars of DBW10, the local to Wilson Steel Works, sit in the yard, ready to go, including a gon loaded with baled scrap and a "finger-rack" flatcar for rebar loading.
Alongside two more gons of scrap, engine 3163 shows her age with the soot-stained roof and rusty dynamic brake grids. By comparison, engine 1990 is resplendent in her D&H heritage paint scheme; more on her to come in the future...
Sam looks at a co-worker's mini-van -eyeing the rusted roof!
Other workers seem to take better care of their vehicles, as this shot shows.
And lastly...HAPPY EASTER!!!
