In the background a pair  SD60F's sit on the Northern Wood lead- named for the large lumber mill that use occupy the lands to the right out of frame.

  1. What are the tank cars for over in that terminal? Always saw a few over there when I visited town.

  2. It’s some kind of transload operation, Jamie. It’s all new business.
