Clearing Congestion
The congestion is starting to clear as the pellet load snakes its way toward Proctor Hill, thus allowing U715 to depart for Minntac. Easing into the scene is the Proctor Switch coming to a stop at the Elwood yard office, their day done. In the distance the power for the limestone empty is on and on the far right the extra switch is working the E yard.
The limestone power is interesting in that the set contains three body variations of GE's C40-8 model; 2027 is a former C&NW standard cab, followed by wide cab 2184 (ex-ATSF) and cowl 2449.
