This veteran SD40-2 gets to rest on a pretty March afternoon, but will be back to work in two days.
With M712 out of the way, M713 backs up track 4 towards the north end of the yard with intentions to sort covered hoppers.
M713, with a former Chessie System loco, is about to couple to a cut of empty covered hoppers that need sorting.
A nicely painted YN1 SD40-2 graces the town of Calera with its presence and provides extra muscle for the locals this weekend.
M713 being conducted by the ultra friendly "Slim" Jim, rounds the curve to enter Calera Yard. They are bringing 5 loads for M721 to add to it's train.
The friendly conductor of M713 throws the switch to allow M713 to start sorting the empty hoppers in the background at Calera's yard on a very very cold morning.
