Great colorful images - perfect for Fall, and a look back into the old ways of Railroading. Thanks; made my day.

Does he place torpedos on the rail when recalled?

No, he had stopped the motor car that followed the eastbound extra train.

Sublette is within a Yard Limit.  I wonder why he needed to flag?
