V92 is now pulling this train south on the Pleasant Valley line
Title:  V92 is now pulling this train south on the Pleasant Valley line
Description:  This means another train is coming through today. V92 will tie down with the rear about 20 feet south of the diamond. This will allow another train to come in from or leave to Shenandoah using the switch at the bridge to make it happen. With this yard you pull out and back in!

The V92 heads south to tie down so a train coming from Mt. Jackson can come through, heading to Shenandoah
Title:  The V92 heads south to tie down so a train coming from Mt. Jackson can come through, heading to Shenandoah
Description:  My guess was correct! Over the scanner I learned that V94 was coming from Mt. Jackson and will be re-crewed and designated as NS 932 at the bridge. NS 932 will take that train to Shenandoah.
