Pulling them out
Title:  Pulling them out
Description:  A power set comes out of the yard with a cut of cars to roll south. Its train is waiting on the main. The two SD 35's were common on road freights at this time, along with either an SD 40 or 45. Most of the trains I saw that day had some combination of SD 35's, 40's, and 45's, typically in three unit sets, almost all of them running long hood forward which was standard Southern practice.

On into the night
Title:  On into the night
Description:  Well after dark, a southbound works the yard. The traffic here was not monumental-no one will confuse this line with the UP in Nebraska-but it was steady. I was there about 15 hours, and saw 15 or so trains. I didnt keep notes in those days(silly me, theyd be really helpful now, 35 years later), so dont have an exact count, but it seemed like there was a train every hour or so.
