The Oahill Turn is usually considered the most popular
road job on the railroad.
Here the Oakhill Turn (extra 79) is hard at work switching the gravel quarry. The Oakhill turn is expected to
stay off the mainline while they switch, but it appears Joe and Brad have violated that guideline. Ahem... Hopefully they
are obeying rule 99 and sent out a flagman to protect against any trains that might be approaching from the west
while those gravel hoppers are out on the main.
The Oakhill Turn is supposed to use the wye in Oakhill for run arounds. Joe has raised the lift-up hatch there so he can reach the wye's tail track to uncouple cars and throw the turnout. |
