Due to an increase in LCL traffic, the railroad is sending a Sunday train with a single boxcar of LCL to Osseo, WI to be unloaded there at the depot. While that task is being completed, the crew of C&NW GP7 1576 will pull all the outbound cars from the industries in Osseo and place them on the two run-around sidings. Once that is complete, the crew will hook back onto their short train and head down the branch line over to Mondovi.
In the next video, after working Mondovi and returning to Osseo, the outbound cars will be blocked for Fairchild (Railroad East) and Altoona (Railroad West) before the crew leaves town.
(Pardon a couple of shaky portions and the one time I dropped the throttle and the speed went from 10 to 45. Left it all in, because it's more honest that way.)
