Go ahead, call me crazy, but I railfanned Delray in the middle of the night alone. However it provided lots of entertainment with some unusual operations and, of course, it was VERY busy for just an hour there. One of new narrated videos, enjoy!

You’re quite the night owl 🙂

I like your narration
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...

It has been spotted in the past where a few intermodal cars will not be set off at Moterm and taken to Lang for various reasons. 507 has been seen with intermodal at Milwaukee Jct.

Empty intermodal cars can also be sent to Lang or Flat Rock for storage.

Delray can still stack up at the right time, not as common now with PSR, but more frequently when when a boat passes through.
