Yesterday, I took a long lunch and watched 19G work the yard at Hershey.  Here it is passing under the Route 743 bridge at the east end of the yard:

The conductor is climbing up to set a hand brake on the cut of cars that were set off:

Now 19G is backing, on the mainline, under the signal bridge, to the rest of its train:

This goes on just about every day as the supplies needed to make Hershey's Chocolate and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups are delivered by rail to this little yard.
