Switching and Spotting on the Essex Terminal Railway - Drone Footage

Описание к видео Switching and Spotting on the Essex Terminal Railway - Drone Footage

In this video, ETL 108, an EMD GP9, can be seen switching Border Reload, a lumber transferring facility located off of Walker Road in Windsor, ON on the eastern part and near the beginning of the ETR's line. This customer is switched about 2-4 times a week and has only one track on their property which can hold about 8 cars. This is the first time I've seen them have boxcars. The whole operation took about 45 minutes or so to do, starting at 8:15am and ending a few minutes after 9:00am. This is one of the easier switching operations to watch on the ETR, especially if you have a drone.
