An oddly paired GP38-2 and Gevo spot a loaded boxcar of bricks on the W.R. Taylor Company spur off the Tarragona Street running trackage leading to the port of Pensacola. Once spotted, the crew will pick up the empty set out in the middle of Tarragona Street and head back to Goulding Yard. I can't even remember how many trips I've made to try and catch this move as it's extremely elusive and almost exclusively done at night. Depending on demand, W.R. Taylor might get as much as two cars a week or just one every two weeks or less. The only reason this happened in daylight (and barely as it was basically dark when they finished) is because the crew wanted to stay ahead of a storm and took care of it first thing on their shift.
W.R. Taylor receives brick shipments in these classic former-SP Hydro-Cushion boxcars from Columbus, MS. A few years ago they also still got high-cube boxcars from Chicago, but that has ended due to routing changes and the accompanying higher rates. W.R. Taylor is one of only a handful of customers in the entire country that still get serviced from a spur branching off of a street running section, so the operation is extremely unique. Pensacola, FL
Here is a link to a photo of the only other time I had managed to capture the move. It was back in 2017 and the crew was pulling a high-cube that had come in from Chicago during the more usual hours of this operation: flickr.com/photos/henry_dell/33865010663/in/album-7215771...
