Picking up orders at Valrico, FL
Author: acltrainman

Here we have a phosphate train from the Bone Valley headed to Seddon Island unloading facility on 09/1970. The operator, Mrs. Kennedy, is handing up orders to the train crew coming off the Valrico Sub on to the Yeoman Sub to Tampa, FL. Powered by SDP 606, GP 844 and a unknown number RS with the phosphate train.

I'll bet that Alco sounded great throttling up after catching the orders!
