Fly in the ointment
Title:  Fly in the ointment
Description:  When the northbound empty TXUX train didnt start once the H train cleared the north switch at Stilwell, it caused me to miss the shot of the Belle leader at the station. Heres why the northbound didnt get the signal: this light power move south, coming into town about 15 minutes behind the H train.

McKee Foods
