Transfer One |
| Description: |
Even though this was just the other night, I already know that this train is an instant classic, and something that I will undoubtedly look back at many times. |

Rickety Business |
| Description: |
Two Bandits negotiate the Cowin industrial spur, which for many years was so horribly out of guage that you had about a 50-50 chance of staying on the rails, which isn't the nicest set of rails I've ever seen. They are going to tie onto the two cars in the foreground, and a flatcar which is behind the two hoppers as well. |

Transfer One |
| Description: |
After pulling the two hoppers and the flat, they are now making a move to get the hopper on the head end. Here they are switching the two hoppers onto the main. |

Transfer One's first move is over, now they are tied onto the flatcar, which will go on the end of the two hoppers. |

Bandits |
| Description: |
Transfer One finally has the train the way they like it, and will shove down past the West Leg of the wye, then give the cars a once over while the two units will make a reverse movement and sit on the West leg. |

Last Hurrah? |
| Description: |
Resting on the wye, the two bandits on Transfer one will tie back onto the cars on the mainline after the conductor is done inspecting them. A very cool sight that most likely will never be repeated, as the paint shop down in Iowa has these two units plus many others on the waiting list. |
