Working hard
Title:  Working hard
Description:  New MP 15 2353 pushes hard on a cut of cars being set over for pick up by a later train. The yard was busy enough to keep two switch engines busy all afternoon, and the parade of southbounds was bringing more, even as those trains picked up what the yard jobs had ready.
