An ET44AC and an ES44AC bring AX-41, an old DRGW Jordan Spreader, west out of North Yard. It is supposed to be used on the west slope to actually clear some snow! By some accounts, it is the first time the spreader has left North Yard since 2007. However, one of the wings on the spreader hit the high/wide detector at MP 8.5. So, here the train sits waiting for a carman from North Yard to come out and secure it so it does not hit a tunnel wall.
