Remarks & Notes

Not your typical "coupler pan" shot. The trailing centerbeam flatcar dropped it's drawbar about a mile or so back. At about 3 mph they made it about half mile before the strap that was holding the car to the train, broke. A chain was found and rigged up to drag the car into the Tacoma Yard for setout.
