Portsmouth Yard
Title:  Portsmouth Yard
Description:  Things are looking good in Portsmouth these days, with increased traffic to four of the customers. Reminds me of the days when Foss in Hampton still received cars, with so many pellet hoppers in the yard. MEC 516 sits quietly by the parking garage as fifteen loaded hoppers for Tyco fill the yard tracks (two more were behind me) and an outbound consist of empties sits at the west end of the yard. The DO-1 crew went to Rigby to get MEC 503 and 23 more loads, which would arrive with the DO-2 crew after 8pm.
