TOFC at UP's Dolores Yard Carson, Ca
Author: casco17

A couple weeks ago I saw a string of TOFC cars at Dolores Yard. I'm used to seeing containers all the time of course, but really don't recall seeing trailers at other times. Would these be loaded at the ICTF, or another location?
Thx

Traffic that was destined to either the East LA or LATC facilities. It was run-through for one reason or another. Usually it is deramped at ICTF (we rarely load trailers) but in this case I believe we sent a string back up to one of the LA facilities when they had the room available. Just an FYI, 99% of the cars you see in the lower Dolores yard are inbound to ICTF.

Thanks. The ones I saw were near the Alameda/Dominguez intersection, maybe 30 or so.
