The departure yard in Armourdale was called the train yard. It is really a yard within the yard and it is the heart and soul of railroad operations.
While shoving back into the east departure yard we engaged in a conversation of some sort. All of a sudden the Engineer says "Oh sh*t" and quickly dumps the air. We stopped quickly and he tells me to come over and take a look.
