Mission accomplished! North Yard hostlers have cut out the mid-train helpers from this coal load on Main 2. The light power will be taken back to North Yard for servicing before likely returning west for additional helper service. Meanwhile, the crew from the coal train will back the front half of the coal train back to the rear half and hook it back up. The next crew will then take the coal train east on the plains with two units on the point and one on the tail end.
