Y322 Mini Ops Session

Did a little switching around the Miami Terminal on the mostly blank boards of Y322, the Downtown job. Did it the old style if you want to call it that, first down to the spur then to East Rail. You can see me working Family & Son and then SALCO.

West Rail and Y220 Mini-Op Session

As can be seen in this video,

I have begun fancying the vantage point at Hialeah Market Station for the likes of O721, Y322, and Y220 as well as the usual melee of Tri-Rail trains.

The area is part of what defines Miami. The market next to me bears some classic resemblance. West Rail and the rail side of Hialeah Market have been, unfortunately, mere shells of what they were in the past. Back in 1995 or so, it was a bustling yard. Now, a house track became a Home Depot parking lot, the east track's customer stopped taking in rail shipments, and only one customer remains: Antique Brick and Stone.

Traditionally, on a lucky weeknight, Y220 will take freight to the customer.

Combining these factors has allowed for me to make and sim a mini Y220 in the area. Here are some pics:
