Only because I'm planning on modeling the "aurora terminal" and the
movement of stock is one of the interesting items and I know from hanging on
the
sides of the cars how the normal,routine stock movements from the C&I to
Montgomery moved; but how were the moves involving eastbound stock from the
C&I to points on the mainline handled at Aurora/Eola/Montgomery ?
Look at this years BRHS calendar shot at Mendota with a load of sheep
first out for Princeton. Look at Russ's 3/3/09 list of #88 with stock for both
Montgomery and Earlville. At Aurora did 88 s/o all the stock on the sheep
yard lead and then a yard crew brings the Earville load back to Eola for a
mainline crew to handle? Did #88 hold on to that one load and take it to
Eola and then the shuffle takes place there ?
Does the switch crew shove the lone car of Earlville stock to the west end
of the "old north main" for the westbound mainline crew to p/u there ?
If the stock needs to be "rested" at Montgomery,when reloaded does it go
to Eola to be added to a p/u there or is it p/u at Montgomery.
I dont know and I doubt there are many left around who actually saw this
but..........hey whats your thoughts on the most cost efficient way to
handle this move ? Clearly it happened more than I thought.
