Western Railroad Discussion > Yard Jobs Locals and the Cherryvale Charger

Here in Tulsa, OK recently I've been able to get some older power earning their keeps between class including a pair of SD70MACs working on the Cherokee Yard hump job. I'll let the captions do the rest of the work.

1) Earlier this week a pair of MAC's shove cars over the hump (out of the picture) on the west side of Cherokee Yard. All the grading work is for several extra tracks to be added including a bypass track.

2) 104 makes its return to Cherokee Yard passing East Cherokee after getting SKOL interchange

3) UP's local from Muskogee travels down the Texas Belt to connect with the TSU in west Tulsa
