    Danny, I'm a conductor with CSX in NE Ohio. Home terminal is QD 173. The corona virus shut down so many factories, That is what killed our shipping. Thank you for these sir. Keep them coming!

    Tropicana is shipping more juice then ever, but largely from the greatly expanded Ft. Pierce plant, which sends cars north to Jacksonville on the FEC, where they join up with CSX. Large number of oranges processed at the East coast plant are from S. America, this due to urban expansion into the groves and various Florida citrus diseases.

    I have been following your account for 2 ½ years now, and I have to thank you for your content. Coming from a very different railroading background (I work as a locomotive engineer in Italy), I found your videos very informative. Thank you from KP (kilometer-post) 147.48 (Verona Porta Nuova station) along the Milan-Venice railway line.

    Hello again Danny, while working a swing shift off the extra board at Yeoman, we used to build a big train similar to the one on this video. It required a crew on both ends of track 2, and a full eight hours to complete. Lots of down time waiting for our turn to move. Not a bad shift, time for supper cooked on a little grill the conductor built. Fun times.

    Hi Danny , another great show from DS !! When I was in the US , I made sure I got some Tropicana Juice , as I have a dozen of their older reefers on the layout! I have to agree, it was a great tasting juice and I brought an empty bottle back with me to Australia..LOL. Nice drone footage of the yard too ..if you tried to fly over a yard here , you'd be in big trouble! Not that we have a lot of interesting yards any way!
    Thanks for another great show SIr.

    I guess times have changed. In my day inside the yard limit sign, switch crews did the work. Here I see the road crew making up the train in the yard. As a brakeman on the local on the SP's Hearne sub, we picked up our train at Englewood and did no work until we were outside the yard limit sign, which in those days was somewhere past Campbell Road on what is now the old Hempstead Highway. We coupled the engines in the yard, but yardmen coupled the air hose and another boarded the caboose and checked the air pressure.
