Now what
Title:  Now what
Description:  There is a pair of Centuries in the tail track at the east end of the station in Montauk, and now another train has arrived from Jamaica, and cant get their power turned. Guess the second train will have to back out and head to the yard, though its possible these units could tie on, and all four diesels back the train out. Looks like theres a conference going on in front of the 212 over who will do what.
