GN operating session.
Twice as many showed up than I was expecting.
The session starts at 7 pm but we were to get 2-6 inches of snow from 8 PM until 4 PM so I emailed that the 'doors' will be open for tonight and another ops will be done next Saturday.
I wasn't expecting anyone but two brave souls showed up so we had a good time until about 10:30 PM.
Another surprise: Leaving at 10:30, there was only a dusting of snow on the ground.
First things first: we had pizza.
Joe brought his twin stack triple unit container cars.
Got all the double containers loaded.
Two large diesels that are really heavy: I weighed them and 2 pounds each.
Ready to leave Seattle's freight yard.
Slight problem: The railroad was made for 1938 'standards' so the double stacks weren't about to get into the first tunnel! Joe backed up to the yard and we made them single stacks!
Three way meet at one siding. A GN R-2 2-8-8-2 freight and......
....a PRR T-1 4-4-4-4, both west bound...
...waiting for the eastbound double, er, single stack freight to pass.
Jor getting the PRR T-1 from the roundhouse, going to connect to his train.
