Wellcox C yard

Wellcox C yard

E&N GP38's in the Wellcox "C" yard. Wellcox is divided into three yards, A B and C. The A yard is for Westbound traffic(to the customers on the E&N), the B yard is for eastward departure(to the mainland via barge).The C yard includes the barge slip and is for marshalling cars for the barge, now that they pull all four cuts at once on the barge the C yard is rarely used, only if they are using a single Geep and need to pull one cut at a time off the barge. In the CP days, they'd only use a single Geep to switch the barge, pulling one cut off at a time, placing them in the C yard, it took longer and recently RA started using the two units, pulling all the cars off at once.
