Train #532 is headed to stock yard duty. It will drop off four reefers of ice for the ice house, move the empty stock cars to the cleaning track, drop of a tank of fuel oil, and leave a couple flat cars to be loaded by heavy equipment junk. Finally it will move reefers loaded with meat to and through the icing track before returning to the yard. The stock yard area is tight and so the train is
assigned the smallest caboose in the pool, lucky #13.
The caboose is a kitbashed (by a friend) Athearn bay window. The design was inspired by the Walthers piker and oscar passenger cars.
