Description
The aforementioned Detroit yard is on the left, with the auto frames stacked in gondolas identifying train CD-1, a Cleveland-Detroit manifest receiving most of its traffic at Rockport Yard through which the Midland-Ross frame business is handled (recall the return movement of empty frame gons in CB-2 on the preceding page). The U-2 switcher is on the "hump" yard lead. Tracks in the foreground are at the east end of the "Panama," where Stanley and other crosstown traffic is handled along with local and industrial business. The "hole" yard and main line are in the right background in this view.
