Nice! Icehouse to the extreme right, with the mechanised loader one track over. The B yard has a heck of a grade. Last time I worked it (2003) it was required that a minimum of ten (10!) handbrakes be applied to the bottom (the end closest to Rana) of any cut. More might need be applied if the tonnage/grade chart was consulted. Any cut less than ten cars required all handbrakes.

Not that the rule was accutely followed, however.
