You will be using SW1500 #1056 and you may need both slugs to make the grade.

 

Fire has shut down the local source of logs for the Sarahville Sawmill. Mt Ephraim Logging has got a special order for 25 car loads, they are cut, loaded and ready to go. In this part you will move the cars to Mt Ephraim Yard 2 and 3.

 

Once you dropped them off head over to the refuel point and the activity will end there

In the second part you will haul them to Dale.

As we are a little light on power this morning the grade up to Mt Ephraim will be a challenge.
